Sweet little houseguests




After the last snow we discovered a momma bird had nested by our front porch. A couple weeks later the baby birds appeared. They've been so fun and sweet to watch, until a few days ago when the babies were taking flight for the first time. I guess something about them being out of the nest made the Mom extra protective. She came at a friend of ours chirping and basically creating a scene from Alfred Hitchcock's' "Birds". Now we're left with a cute nest and a bunch of poop to clean up. Isn't that a perfect summary of guests? Ha ha.
