Bird news...

Day two...
It would seem that Mr. B Bird has made some progress with Mrs. B Bird.  Today was a busy day with the Mrs. flying in and out of the house getting the bedding in place.  Seems that she is beginning to see the plus side of living in an original JB Russell family one of a kind hotel.  Well...I guess it's not one of a kind since I think the building resulted in about 18 one of a kind hotels.  And wouldn't you know it.  The mama to be is doing all the work with anticipation just like we people mothers...get the crib ready...buy the diapers...and more.  The mister sits around watching, fighting off the chipmunks and keeping other bird neighbors away from those yummy dried M. worms.  And when the Mrs. takes off to find more bedding...the Mr. followers her to see that she safely returns.  It's been fun to watch today.  The nest is about 8 feet from the patio.  We have front row seats.  Rain continues...Hostas are at their all time big.  Got groceries at Aldi's and then on to Habig's to get smelly stuff to keep the deer away.  Our front yard is full of deer tracks.  Got to keep them away from some of their favorite food in the flowerbeds.
