DAY 31     MAY 11  2011
The second egg hatches out.
 8:30 am
The second baby has hatched out. 
(The parents of the older set of hatchlings)
This egg was laid April 27.
See DAY 17.

For the photo,  I put the shell close by.
  The parents had already discarded it.

 The newer baby is in front.

 The Mom is close by...

 ....keeping a close eye on my interference!

 She is not impressed - 
she is very determined to get the shell remains 
away from the nest.

 Shaking her head and chomping on the shell.

 Dad comes along to take over...

 Keeping them warm, with Mom in the background,
making sure the older hatchlings do not interfere.

 The Mom of the younger pair, patiently sitting.

The younger set.
