Tawny Baby growing & doubling in number

We have been watching a beautiful little Tawny Frogmouth being cared for by it's parents at our patch in South-East Queensland, Australia for the past few weeks.  Each week I have posted a photo of the little one's growth and progress. (see previous poss here 12/10/14,  19/10/14   ).  We went on Sunday again to take another updated photo of the bird who is almost a fledgling and to our surprise we noticed not one, but two baby Tawny Frogmouths!  Somehow in that flimsy little nest right up high, one baby had been hiding under mum each time we have gone for a look at it!
The nests of the Tawny's are rather pathetic and placed in precarious positions, so we are impressed that that there were two little ones being cared for!  I have taken many photos of course, but these are the best ones.  Yesterday afternoon we watched the two babies stretch their wings and hop around on the branches close by - so soon these little fledgelings will be off into the world.
