Where Are Your Babies?

We have been waiting for weeks to see the Roadrunner babies. The parents have been sitting on the nest in the tree outside our front door for what seems ages. This is a photo of "dinner time". The little lizard in his mouth was the entrée. We have been watching and... nothing. Now, there is no one sitting on the nest. So, either the eggs did not hatch or we totally missed the babies. The second is pretty unlikely as the babies stay in the nest until they are quite large and you can easily see their heads when no one is on the nest. We are sad as it is such fun to watch all this going on. Oh well!
