She said 'Yes' to the nest! Last week I spotted a bird's nest in one of my potted plants. It was elaborate (it covered up a lot of the plant) but it was empty. I know that sometimes male Carolina wrens build nests that don't get used (the female gets to approve it). Needless to say, I was excited this week to discover that four eggs had been laid inside! I also saw the Carolina wren sitting on the nest at one point.
So my #momentinnature for this month has to be this happy discovery. I look forward to watching these guys grow up and eat some of the bugs in my garden (not because I don't want bugs but because I want birds to have a life cycle in my garden).
