THE NEST








    Brian found the nest in early June.  How he managed this, I'll never know.  He's just gifted with being able to see things others dont.  It was pretty cleverly disguised.  When Brian first showed it to me, I thought it was a mistletoe infection, and I couldn't understand his excitement.  Then he pulled the branch low enough for me to see a single egg inside the nest...
 
 
 
 
 

Curiosity, of course got the better of me, and I could not help myself from looking back into the nest a couple days later.   By then there were two eggs!  Of course, we never saw the mother tending to the nest (although she always managed to be at the picture window in the living room whenever her feeder needed refilled...!), so we weren't sure whether or not she was actually tending the nest....
