The Brood

You remember a few posts back...
the couple who relocated
from one side of our kitchen slider
to the other due to heavy traffic issues?

They finally decided the second nest
was egg worthy...


They've used chicken feathers and horse tail hair mixed in with mud and grass.
I stood on a bar stool and snapped this picture way up over my head,
not bad for a blind shot, huh?

  13. I love bird nests. That one is amazing. Just goes to show us (me) what you can do with what you have.

  14. Not bad at all. But very naughty of you to be standing on a bar stool. Do you know how dangerous that is, young lady?!!

    I'm only saying because our maintenance man at school did almost the same thing using a chair that was on hand rather than getting the ladder. Good thing I had some bandaids on hand.
