A trio of baby butcherbirds sitting on separate branches, more or less in a line. The furthest is in the centre of the frame, difficult to see behind foliage, blending into the background a little. The nearest is in the upper left, also behind leaves, but easier to see as it looks back over its shoulder toward the camera. The next-nearest is more clearly visible in the bottom right, facing away from the camera with beak open as it begs for food from an adult who has just flown into the tree

The three baby butcherbirds often sit together in a line. I've been hoping to get a nice photo, but so far, every time I'm lined up and focusing, an adult flies in, and disrupts things (breakfast is much more important than photos, though!)
My baby magpie friend has been hanging out more with their next eldest sibling, who doesn't like my company. I love seeing them together, but I hope they don't learn to be afraid of me
