Wordy Wednesday: The Birds Fly

For the past month I’ve been showing you pics of eggs and such on here. Two weeks ago I showed you those eggs, from our front porch, finally hatched and out came these tiny little birds with barely any feathers. We’ve taken peeks at them every few days just to see, but we don’t stay long as the momma is heard chirping at the bottom of our stairs.

Today, I got to watch one of the birds take their first flight. Woo hoo! She/he didn’t get far but they’ve never used their wings, she/he made it across the street. The momma hovering back and forth. I’m not sure if they’ll come back once they leave their nest but I’ve had fun watching them grow and so have the kids. Earlier I heard them chirping back and forth but that’s stopped now so either they are back in their nest or gone on. This makes me think of our own children once they learn everything needed for life, thank goodness it isn’t all done in a month right? Happy WW!
That is not SNOW in these pictures, is it??!! Love birds nests ~ we’re watching several of them right now in the bushes out front.
nope it is just the sunlight bouncing off the cars across the street.
these nests are amazing though.
