Baby Bird Boomlet at the Zoo

We received the following announcement from the National Zoo, which included a link to a slideshow of an amazing variety of chicks, all guaranteed to make you say "Awwwww."

As Washington, D.C.'s unseasonably warm winter turns into spring, a baby boom is underway at the Zoo. Three rheas, two Guam rails, a wattled crane chick, and a second kiwi chick all hatched at the Bird House in March. Come meet them (and more feathered friends) during your next visit!
