Staring Out The Window At Work




I have been watching, out my front window at work, a couple birds buildng a nest. They were bringing in the normal stuff for bird nest building, sticks, leaves, etc.

Over the weeks I kept busy at work and forgot about them until this week when I noticed they were bringing something different---worms!I knew the eggs had hatched and mom and dad were feeding their babies.

I went out to see if I could find the nest and I did, so I had to take a picture!

As I am typing, the mommy bird is on a branch in the tree waiting for the perfect time to swoop down and give her babies that luscious worm she has in her beak.

Glad I don't have to eat worms!!

First Fire of the Summer!

On Saturday, we decided that we would build a fire to burn up some of the brush we had accumulated. Our grandson thought we should have the fire and sleep out in the camper.

Grandpa and Nathan starting the fire.

Nathan is very serious when it comes to having a fire in the pit.

Blowing out the flame.

This is our fire! We did burn a ton of brush! Nathan just kept putting it on the fire!

When it was time to get ready for bed, he decided to sleep in the house and not in the camper. He wanted to snuggle with Grandpa! What a cutie!
