There we little baby birds in here but I didn't want to get any closer and scare the parents. It was enjoyable to watch the parents feed them.

    Probably Eastern Phoebes - a species of Flycatcher. They commonly roost in shelters. Adult birds flick their tails nervously as they perch waiting for an insect meal.
