Bird,s Nest

Just had to share this.

I have a sweet mommy bird building a nest in the big cactus right outside my kitchen window.

It is such a joy to have been watching her everyday getting that home ready for her babes.

I think this is close to being finished.

Hope you can see it in the photos with out too much trouble.

  3. I have a few bird nests around here...too many, mostly doves but have never seen one in a cactus..i guess I should go look i in some of my cactus;s huh Susan? I just read how important water is for birds to survive, so I make sure my little fountain has clean water in it every day....:) Have a good day.

  5. Don't know what type of bird but I am going to see a client today who is a big birder and I will find out from her. the little mommy is still being busy sorting out the nest. We had a hugh storm yesterday and I thought it would harm the nest but guess not.
    IVickie I think she build s the nest in the cactus because the neighborhood cats can't get up in it.

  6. Talked to my bird friends and it looks like the mommy birdie may be a bewick's wren. pronounced like the word buick. Must be someones name. any way they abound around here. We thought it might be a cactus wren (duh) but doesn['t seem she has enouch spots. So I will keep you posted Nice day all
