isn't she gorgeous? sitting on her little nest in my apple tree. i came upon her with luke. actually luke was the one who pointed her out. i think she has spent several springs with us trying to nest. poor little mama. every year we have a nest with eggs in this tree, then along comes mother nature with dust storms and strong afternoon winds that send their woven nests into pieces on the ground. hopefully not this year. i will do my best to guard her and check on her everyday. can't wait to hear some chirping babies in that tree.
logan heard me discussing the winds and wondered why miss tree mama had not used one of our tree houses. landon quickly pointed out his bird house hanging on a branch next to her in the tree. well, boys, i dont think she can fit with all her eggs. i may have spoke too soon. i could see the wheels in their heads turning. look for much larger bird houses in the future. ha, they will want to build them as big as the house. adorable.
She is very pretty and it will be so cute to hear and see the babies when they hatch and learn to fly. Unfortunately we have two patio fans wherein the little birds make their nests each year a mess but it is cute to hear them cheering their mama/papa (?) when they come back to the nest bringing them food. It's also interesting when they first venture out and dare make their first flights. Nature is miraculous and beautiful when we quietly let it take its course.
