Two Baby Cowbirds Out And About

On this day there were two baby cowbirds in my front yard. This was the short moment that they were close enough to get them both in the same frame. One is on the ground by the fountain and the other is up on a ledge where birds like to bathe. I do not know if they are siblings because I have two pairs of cardinals that nest at my home, one in the front yard and one in the back. I'll share close ups of these two birds later that shows they were not the same stage of feather development, you can't really tell that from this shot.
