I've been hearing fledglings chirping for their parents all morning.  Haven't seen them but I suspect cardinals and mockingbirds.  I have two golden retrievers so I've been keeping them inside with a few excursions for potty breaks.  It's a sound that brings joy to my heart!  What baby birds have you seen this summer?

We've had chickadees, redbellied woodpeckers, red-headed woodpeckers, eastern towhee, bluebirds, bluejays and cardinals so far this summer! I have posted photos of several of the juvenile birds in my yard over the past week.

Thanks for posting to *My Bird Macro* !

I have seen any babies. But I sure can hear them. Where they are at. I hope they stay hid. Or the feral cats will get them.

I don't think we have any.

I do know that I have a baby bunny that's been eating my vege garden!

I haven't seen any baby birds yet.

I'm trying to find the bald eagals that are nesting in a tree in the neighboring yard.

i have seen,wrens/sparrows,bluejays,red birds,wood-peckers,yellow cowbirds,tufted-titmouse,black-capped chick-a-dees,brown thrashers,doves,and the reason that i see all of these is because i feed them,just started in the spring of this year.and you can do the same...just get you some feeders and a camera,it only takes a little while for them to find them there feeders...lovely day.

Lets see, we have a Blue Jay nest close by, and a Black Cap Chickidee nest or ten somewhere. THen the Cardenals have had a couple of juviniles around. Also seen some Robin young around, as well as a few wrens. All in all quite a few of them.
Leah A. Aug 12, 2008, 10:48pm EDT
Right now we have a nest under the eves in the back of the house with two baby Robins in it.

Mockingbirds, mourning doves, American robins, Cardinals and probably many, many more that I can only hear.
