THANKS Jan!!!! It was a joy to see the babies hatching!!!! We were cheering them on.

I was blowing them kisses and waiving goodbye to them. It was magical! I hope you get the chance to see them sometime

Yes, we waved goodbye! It was emotional down there, esp when the mom died.

How cool is that?!

Great job with the photos, they're all lovely! It's so hard to get tiny moving things in focus.
