Spring is Here!

Spring is in the here. The weather is beautiful...sunny, and temperatures in the 80's.

So what better time than for 2 little birds to look for a place for their new nest?

I heard a bird singing on the front porch and took a peek out the window.  There was a purple finch and his mate.  She flew to the grapevine wreath hanging on the porch and sat there.  She seemed to be trying it out as a location for her nest.  He flew up higher and then started singing again.

I did not see them later in the day, so I don't know if they found a better location or not.

I guess this is the same pair that built a nest on the porch late last Summer.  They will be a topic of a future post.  Here is a preview of the little baby birds from last year...


Happy Spring!
