Outside My Window

I had to take these photos through the patio door, so the quality is not the best, but I really enjoyed watching this sweet couple build their nest.  It was amazing to me, the way they worked together.  They collected twigs into a pile on the roof, then one of the birds passed twigs, one at a time, to the other bird, who created the nest.  It was really cool to watch.  Unfortunately, we had to evict them later that day.  Why?  Well, the roofer stopped by to let us know that due to the unseasonably warm weather, we will be getting our new roof on Monday.  There were no eggs in the nest, so we felt it best to remove it and force the birds to relocate for their own protection.

  1. Aw... They still have time to build another for the spring batch. We had to evict some, because they built in our only outside light for the carport. It was mostly grasses and was a fire hazard.

  2. Don't ya just hate when you have to upset a hard working couple? Sometime it has to be done.

  3. Yes, what fun to watch, but best to make them rebuild in a safe place. Good pictures, even through the glass.

  4. Glad the birds are going to land on their feet someplace safer. They made quite a team so moving shouldn't be a problem. But they are probably wondering WTH happened to the nest they built? LOL Take care.
