As Tommy was mowing the lawn one evening - he found this momma and her babies on one our trees. At first she was pressed so tight against the tree that she looked like fuzzy fungus!
She was about the size of a hamster. Upon further investigation, we noticed her body moving in waves - then she lifted her head a two baby wings popped out! We must have laid in the grass for an hour watching them!
At one point, one of the babies licked her face all over - so sweet! (see video)
There was a third baby that we only saw after dark, when the mom flew away. She was gone for just a little while, then she came back and picked them up. She has not returned.
