Happy Mother's Day


Here are some flowers for you, a Pinata rose !   Hope your day was wonderful!!!   I went and had
special coffee, walked a nature trail and my family gave me this beautiful beauty~    I also
was given a touching poem by my daughter and a card and ice cream from my son.    My husband
built me a garden bench and then gradually moved the boots out of the garage.  The Wilson Warblers have adjusted to their home being moved and we are pleased.    My husband said, he will wipe out his boots, when they are done.   The funny thing is...he kept saying how they must have another nest.    We found, Plan B nest, in the
in the other boot.  We both  thought there was only one nest in one boot...not the case!   It  is
Boot A and Boot B, instead of Thing 1 and Thing 2.    I  loved that, my Mother's Day gift involved saving 
a bird families home and their soon to be babies.  Now, he is thinking bird cam in the bush near by with
umbrella....  I thought he was kidding, now not so sure!

 I had to give them the silk sunflowers as a house warming gift.  They are attracted to yellow.

   Here is the bench moved out to the side of our garage!  See the Warbler is checking it out and
seemed happy and dove into the boot, with a mouthful of straw.  My husband later, saw a beetle
crawl out, wondering where he was?!   

Yes, I made a little sign for them, it says, "Home
Tweet Home".  It has a musical note flash card at the top.   Yeah, we have adopted them, should be fun to watch~

that's really neat the way you've provided for them. they gonna be dry enough? cats ? you gonna build a bird ladder for the babies to climb? don't you know we all want weekly updates too? :)

Hi Lisa-Thanks, yeah, I had to stick the yellow
sunflowers in there! A house warming gift, lol!

Stacey-I don't know yet, if there will be a bird cam, but If there is, I will provide updates! Thanks for stopping by! Happy Mother's Day to you~

Bud-Funny, you should ask, there is corner part of the roof, that will prevent some rain, but my husband is going to build them
a roof. It is suppose to rain, Wednesday, so
hopefully this will get done tomorrow! I don't know about the ladder, I have an orchid trellis, perhaps?! My husband doesn't think
a cat is likely to get to them, I am more worried about snakes. Last summer, my husband left his sneakers on the front porch of the house. He later went out to get them and a snake had taken over his sneaker. I don't know what it is about his footwear that
wild America loves?!

what a fun story to watch unfold, I love birds in nature- Have you ever read the children's book about a girl and a rabbit and the girl is looking for something to give her mom on her birthday and the rabbit suggests a bird and the girl says my mom doesn't like birds in cages. So funny that is how I feel. I love the yellow color for them, and I love how you catch him on camera. Is it your birthday day too???
