You came just at the right moment looks like to me. This must have been really cool to witness. Did you stick around and get more as they came out?

That was my intention, but then I realize it would take several hours before the chick finally hatched, so I quited, specially because I had thousands of different nests in all possible stages...

Very nice image for the birds forum. We don't see many eggs here. More DOF would improve this one.
