Most baby animals are cute. Well, at least the furry one are. Birds, on the other hand, have some of the most hilariously ugly babies I’ve ever seen. This is a very young Rose-Breasted Grosbeak. In one of these pictures, he has an spare baby feather stuck on his face and he still has his fledgling freckles on his chest.



He will grow up to be a beauty, I’m sure, but in the meantime, he is hilariously awkward. Is he grinning at me?

If you don’t mind the ugly part, he is cute in an awkward way. Messy, too. He has piece of nest stuck to him, old feathers, bits of seed. What a mess!

Baby birds are awkward and even a little ugly, but they are endearing.

I think he’s hilariously cute in that terribly awkward way. And one day, he will be as beautiful as mom and dad. Right now, though, this is not his time of great beauty.
