How long does it take for finch chicks to go from open mouth hatchling to fledgling and out of here?

Posted by zeitgeist Jul 25 '18, 20:52

I noticed a nest in my huge spider plant that had 3 or 4 chicks. Today I go look, it's an abandoned nest. ...I don't see any debris or signs of a fight

  - The last finch nest at Starr Ranch was taken out by an Acorn Woodpecker. Surprised and shocked those watching...live on the webcam :( -- nm - Meg Jul 25, 21:51
