These gorgeous bundles of fluff are only slightly bigger than a 50c coin.
While they might be unrecognisable the baby birds are nocturnal native tawny frogmouths.
The siblings hatched in an incubator after their nest was saved from a Nerang development site.
Wildcare Australia Inc volunteer Dianna Smith was given the job of making sure the baby tawnies hatched and survived their first few days.
“I have hatched plovers, curlews, kingfishers, lorikeets and tawny frogmouths,” Mrs Smith said.
The retired Worongary woman has volunteered with Wildcare for a decade and her focus is hatching birds.
“We never used to be able to do this,” Mrs Smith said.
“I am feeding the tawny frogmouths crickets.
“In a week they will be given to another carer to raise.”
Mrs Smith said to avoid getting too emotionally attached to the birds she usually doesn’t name them.
