I think we have a common interest in birds. One which I share with another blogging friend, Sabrina, who lives in Ireland. We actually have a nest camera set up in a bluebird box in our much neglected vegetable garden. Sadly, we've had a very aggressive pair of House Sparrows that were attacking our blues after they built their nest earlier this spring and they were scared away. We've shut down the box temporarily in hope that the sparrows will move on and installed another nesting box nearer the house which we can keep an eye on. Keeping fingers crossed.Lorraine https://www.blogger.com/profile/11427333309803544827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1044301988472338053.post-40298756105986818132018-06-14T20:25:07.519-04:002018-06-14T20:25:07.519-04:00Thank you Rain.

I think I would have had more depth.Lorraine https://www.blogger.com/profile/11427333309803544827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1044301988472338053.post-51798549897631376632018-06-14T20:23:49.513-04:002018-06-14T20:23:49.513-04:00I think I know what you were aiming for with this ...I think I know what you were aiming for with this challenge and you expected to see something more along the lines of the samples you gave. I'm sorry this fell short of that, but it was a suitable challenge to limit the color pallet.

I realize it's all about 'natural selection' and Nature has her ways and means, but I hate to see helpless tiny birds not given a chance to fly free as they are meant to do. <br /><br />Being a bird watcher here in my own garden, especially in springtime, I'm astounded at the work a tiny pair of birds do to select, build, and prepare a nest for their offspring. Then the constant incubation for a couple of weeks, feeding the hatchlings and such, it's all just incredible!<br /><br />BTW - today I've just posted on some of my garden birds and their 'kids' this morning - take a look here - <br /><br />http://abreathoffreshairmary.blogspot.com/2018/06/garden-birds-on-june-morning.html<br /><br />Glad you joined in this week - not so many of us sadly!<br />Hugs - Mary Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1044301988472338053.post-65825353345919748402018-06-14T08:36:37.925-04:002018-06-14T08:36:37.925-04:00Oh that's so nice!
