Spring Babies


Look what we found on our deck.
Last Friday, May 11, we found one egg.  
(The purple corner is actually a mirror.  I couldn't get a good picture until I used my mirror.)
 It is just cozy as can be.
 On Monday, May 14th, we found 4 eggs.
 There must have been 5 eggs...sniff, sniff.
 Here is the mommy - a House Finch.  She's noisy when she wants to be.  She sits on a nearby branch and calls me all sorts of names.  I'm not sure I want to know what she's saying.  The tone says all I need to know.  She hasn't allowed me to get a picture of her on her nest.  She flies away before I'm even all the way out the door.  
 She blends well with our tree.
