The chicks are really growing fast...but so is the rosebush and I can no longer see them from my study window. So I have to wait for the mother to fly away and hunt so I can get in close and snap some pics. Both chicks seem to be doing just fine, but I may have been wrong about their eyes being open.
The mother is always very cautious in approaching the nest; she clearly wants to avoid us seeing her fly into it. So while we're sitting outside, I try not to look at her when she starts hopping towards the nest.
As always, you can click this picture to see it bigger.
