Growing and gaining strength rapidly...they move upward to higher branches above the nest. They are still very delicate at this age. At first it seemed to me they couldn't hold onto the branch very long with those fragile legs therefore the need to return to the nest for rest would be essential...however they do not return to the nest...sleeping upright in this position for hours feet clinging to the branches...waking only to eat or to change positions. The temperatures soaring each day in the 90's ,the upper branches apparently are a much cooler habitat for these little cuties.
