4-24-2011 Sunday - A Bird's Nest

The very cute story of new mama and papa sparrows who couldn't quite make a nest...
They kept putting twigs and such in our light, but they would fall through the big open spaces. So I place a corner of a cardboard box in the light fixture and tossed all the fallen nesting onto it.
A few days later, I checked on it and this is what I found!

Here, Drew and Luke are looking at the nest on Easter Sunday.

Two eggs hatched, but the other one never did. The mama and papa birds did a great job caring for her two little ones. They flew away two weeks after this photo was taken - boy that is fast!

I loved seeing the nest and your butterfly bushes. How you find time for all of this, I'll never figure out!! I can barely pay my bills and finish the laundry, haha!

You are sure collecting a lot of animals over there! Hopefully the dogs won't eat the cats and the cats won't eat the birds! XO!
