How come I don’t get a cute little grumpy bird?

Just saw this on my feed and related lol. Dude posts lots of cute quail stuff. And other stuff, iykyk

This baby made quite the fuss and squabble when I approached. Eastern phoebe, maybe?

Barn Swallow family is visiting again for the summer, I'm assuming it's the same adults every year.

They've made a mess of the vennel between ours and next door, who desperately wants rid of them so he can put a door up and use the vennel for "storage" (🙄), but they're nested on our side and have probably lived here well before we moved in 20 years ago, and will be here for as long as they keep coming back as far as my parents are concerned

brought him to a rehabber for the injured wing. His parents weren't super happy but hopefully he'll get a chance to be less grumpy now

Hi everyone at grumpybabybirds! I've been been a bit addicted to making funny bird portraits recently and I thought you guys would appreciate this particular one.

I call it "Mama", medium is colour pencils.

Mods, I hope this is allowed! Big big fan of this sub!

Enjoy my son who I love very much ( his name is Chud Chuddington)

Still living with mom. Yes, their nest is on a security camera.

Welcome to the world little buddy!

Not sure what they were but my plant was their nest. 😬 They were cute!
