Thanks Dave and Gee :)
Bjs- I would think that cats would be their #1 enemy. Mama bird was very smart to make her nest at the end of a young skinny branch. The branch would bend with the weight if any thing tried to get it. I suppose that a predatory bird could get them. Although it was pretty well camoflaged from above. The nest is in a Schefflera tree outside my friends front door. I'll get a photo of the branch next time I go :) The babies will probabaly only be there for next few days.
