bird is the word


early in May, jesse and i noticed a blue bird making a nest in one of the bushes in our backyard. 3 weeks later, there were brand new baby birds in there, squawking for food.

the kids have really enjoyed watching the momma bird and the daddy bird bringing food to their babies, all day long. they sit up on the garage roof and wait till the coast is clear, then they dive towards the nest quite cautiously. it's been fun to watch.


the male is the prettiest color. jesse pointed out that it's funny the bird chose a home that matches the color scheme of his feathers, red and blue. :)

ha. It would take someone like Jesse to notice something like that. :)
