Finch Family

It wouldn't be the first time the wreath on my front door became a birthing center for a mama bird.  In 2006, robins chose that spot to raise some babies.  This spring, Mr. & Mrs. Finch moved in, built a nest and Mama laid some of these...


It just so happened that the Finches placed their nest between the wreath and the door...right up against the window {alas, a dirty window}.  Giving us a great vantage point for watching...


the newly hatched sweet baby birds. Mr. & Mrs. Finch are pleased to announce the birth of their brood...Felix, Flora, Fiona, Flynn, & Fergus Finch!

Wish I had a few birdies making nests on my front door! What a neat experience to see them as they grow.
