Nesting ~

I scanned this beautiful print for you a couple months ago and thought I would offer it to you again. As I waited in the car this morning for my teenager to come out to go to school, I noticed in the shrubbery right beside our driveway a female cardinal was working on her nest. I managed to get a few photos while she was off gathering supplies!!

How sweet Dawn.
I have a momma bird and her babies living in my bird house condo in my front yard. I've tried many time to get a picture of her as she enters, no luck yet.
How sweet a shot you got of this nest.
And thanks for the bird print. Your so kind. I have seen many cardinals latly, our state bird. I just love that flash of red as they fly by.

have a sunny day,

Isn't it wonderful to watch nature at work -- birds building nests, taking care of their own? So fragile and they manage to create something this incredible with just a beak!! Makes you realize that "anything truly is possible".

Ah, what wonderful weavers! Be sure and keep us posted on the progress. When my children were young we had a Robin build its nest low in a tree in our front yard. We got photos of her building the nest, laying her eggs, sitting on the, the eggs hatching, he feeding the baby birds worms, the development of the babies, and their first flight from the nest. It was a memorable experience.

What a beautiful picture, thank you! We have cardinals nesting on the side of our yard. I haven't seen the nest yet, but I hear them. Such lovely picture!

Wow, you must have pretty tame birds in your neighbourhood. What a privilege to see a nest being made.

Have a good weekend.

how neat..we had a pair of baby cardinals hatch out in the jessamine, but sadly something got to them..but..I have been enjoying watching a pair of euraian colared doves and their mama every morning now for about a week..they come every morning to the tree outside my kitchen window and stay there almost all day..it is so neat to watch them cuddle together and try to get "dove milk" from the mama bird.
nature is just so fascinating.
