They were almost as big as he was. It was comical. The youngsters acted just like siblings competing and chirping for attention. Dad finally got exasperated and just tossed the food at them. I love watching the birds. I got to watch a hummingbird, this year, building a nest and hatching and raising two babies. They just fledged last week.
