This shows the split second timing of the shift change between parents. Most of the time, one leaves and the other takes it place within seconds. As you can see, they are bringing in bugs to feed the babies. These was once or twice when several minutes went by without a parent on the nest. During one of those times, I was able to walk up close and saw a blob of babies in the bottom. Couldn't tell at that time how many had hatched.
