Oh, how neat!! Maybe you'll be able to get pictures of babies for us.

Im sure I can! I get them every year. Last year was a bonus and I had doves nest in the pear tree by my front door! I watched them take there first flight. We get finch nest too!! I love it. Oh and the bunnies...every year! I can hold them in my hands for a while. We have a bunny out there now that never left since its was just a baby. It sits by our feet in the yard and takes carrots from me. She made it through winter and is really big. Ill take plenty of pics!!

Well, not to intrude on your thread, but my mated pair of Morning doves came back and my mated pair of Ducks came back, wildlife everywhere here.
They know where the eating is good...LOL. I also place a big bin of water out for the Ducks, fun to watch.
So far no Babies have been brought to me, I took my 8 hrs of updated training to renew my wildlife rehab permit, and the wife went to the bird fair today in Stillwater, Mn and guess what she came home without a bird...LOL, first time....I was simply amazed
I pray all those eggs hatch and there are all okay, keep your wiery eye out for the stray cat.
Peace

Arty...you are always welcome in my threads!! I checked the eggs today...still looking good!!

I was kinda surprized not to see a parent on the eggs, Its is still kinda chilly here, 80 degrees one week then back to freezing and snow the next week.
I have a hen sitting on eggs again, snuck in some fake eggs the other day.
I sure wish I could allow them to keep there young, this pair are cripples, if I were to let them keep there eggs my loft would be full by the end of the summer, this pair came from Florida and they are used to breeding year round.
I also am hand feeding a baby Pigeon right now, fiesty little one, each day it gets harder to feed so wien is near...YEA.
Wildlife is so very important to me, I sit and watch them eat and drink and my heart becomes so overwhelmed, trully "Mothers", gift to me.
I pray all those little ones hatch and grow to provide solace to you and your loved ones.
I pray more humans can find the time to just sit back and see all the beauty that surrounds us and know how important they are in our world.
Peace

Look how blue those pretty little eggs are!! Can't wait to see photos of the youngsters! I get such a kick out of watching the wildbirds as they build their nests and raise their families. Sounds like you have a front-row seat, Leigh!!

We painted the outside of our house last year and found a robins nest with tiny babies in a tree near the house. We had so much fun watching their Mom take care of them. We kept the bird bath full of clean water!
