Police Motorcycle Becomes Bird Nest As 2 Chicks Hatch and Officers Go on Baby Watch

A police motorcycle in Washington has turned into a nursery.

The Puyallup Police Department said Sunday, June 7, that two baby birds had hatched inside the storage compartment of one of its training motorcycles at its New Public Safety Facility.

Staff had previously spotted the mother bird and four eggs inside the not-in-service vehicle. The department first shared the nest in a Facebook post on Saturday, May 30.

“ ‘Traffic Birdie’ is now officially on baby watch, making sure our feathered friend and her future hatchlings stay safe and sound,” the department wrote at the time. “We’ll be sharing updates once the eggs hatch, so stay tuned for some adorable new recruits! #PuyallupPD #TrafficBirdie.”

In its latest update, the department said two of the four eggs had now hatched.

“Traffic Birdie Update!,” authorities wrote in the post. “The wait is over… two of the four tiny recruits have officially hatched!”

“Mama Bird has been doing an incredible job taking care of her little ones, keeping them warm, fed, and safe inside their very unique nest at our New Public Safety Facility,” the department added.

Police said staff had been “carefully watching from a respectful distance as this feathered family continues to grow.”

“Two eggs are still waiting to hatch, and we’ll be sure to keep everyone updated as our newest ‘officers-in-training’ make their grand entrance! #PuyallupPD #TrafficBirdie,” the department wrote.

Photos shared by the department showed four eggs in the nest, and another image showed a baby bird coming out of a hatched egg.

PEOPLE reported that it had reached out to the Puyallup Police Department for further comment.
