I've been trying to get some good shots of this guy for a few days but he's always been too far away. He was hanging around just behind my fence today waiting on his parents to bring him some breakfast.

As I've watched him in the past week or so, he loses a little more of the feathers from his head each few days and is starting to get harder to tell from his parents. He's almost as big as they are but still begs for food! Here are a couple from today -
