| Oh, I so love the red bellied WP! I have a family at my house, too and it's so funny to hear them coming across the woods, screaming their arrival, with their babies flying a couple feet behind them and screaming an octave or so higher, just like their daddies and mommas! |

| Thanks so much everyone. I had a feeling they had young ones because the parents kept "loading up" with food before flying away. |

| Fabulous. They are on at the top of my favorite list, too. Love the purrrring sound they make in the tree tops. |

| I agree OP! I love to go outside in the early evenings when its just becoming dark and hearing them calling back and forth to one another. |
