Bird Nest

You can just barely see the light blue egg inside the nest. There are actually at least two eggs in it. I have been trying to resurrect this flower basket the past few days (I am terrible at remembering to water). Yesterday morning when I went out to water, this bird flew away but I thought it had just been perched on the edge of the basket. Then last night when I went to water it the bird flapped away like it had been nestled inside sleeping. So I asked Henry if a bird would make a nest in there and when he said definitely, I had him take it down and take a peek. He saw the nest immediately and thought there was one egg but I saw a second one (this was at 10:15pm). He didn't want to get the mama bird too worked up about us investigating so he hung it back up before I had time to run and get my camera. I did grab my phone and this was the best picture I could get. This morning I peeked out to see if I could tell if mama had come back and she had! Now I guess the flowers are going to die after all but hopefully to give life to two birds.

(PS--more posts/updates coming soon. I am off Friday and blogging is on the list of things to do.)
