A quiet morning with the hummingbirds still the star attraction. The two youngsters returned to the natal Red Cedar and resumed their squabbling. Eventually mama came by and proceeded to feed one of her offspring vigourously. She then took off with the other youngster close behind, presumably to look for another, less contentious playing field. The offspring fledged on the last day of July or on the morning of August 1 so this is at least nine days that they are still hanging around the nest and being fed.
