Learning To Fly

One of my favorite things about spring is getting my flowered hanging baskets up. Aren't they pretty?

After a few days I noticed two sparrows repeatedly flying in and out of the middle basket. Then one day when Ian took it down to water it he found this:



Adorable! I love having them nest right outside our window, I get to peek in at them throughout the day. The mom has since laid an additional two more eggs, so now there will be four baby birds..I can't wait!



Did you get a close look at that nest? They made it out twigs and cigarette filters! Smart birds...way to recycle and reuse.
