My kingdom for a telephoto lens
I was really wishing for one so I could capture clearer pictures of our temporary tenants. We counted five birds in the nest who were all almost as big as mom and dad. Mom swooped in at regular intervals to feed them. The big babies seemed to fumble the food at least half the time. They didn't seem to be too bothered about us watching. You could always tell when mama bird was on her way in because of the chorus of chirps which would precede her arrival.
