Name the Bird - Update

There were some good answers and some very creative answers to the original 'Name the Bird' posting, however, all incorrect. Let me throw out (baseball term get it?!) another clue. There is a professional baseball team named after this bird :-)

Here are a couple pictures that may or may not help in determining what type of bird these guys are -


The babies are just hours old in this picture. Only 2 of the 3 eggs hatched, the other was tossed out - we found it lying on the ground beneath the nest. Not sure if the mother tossed it knowing there was something wrong or one of the new babies accidentally knocked it out.



Here they are again just three days later. Isn't it amazing how fast these dudes are growing!! Both the mother and father have been bring food and feeding this guys.

Can you 'Name the Bird' now?!
