Yesterday I went on the back deck to clear away the dozens of spider webs clinging to the patio furniture, the wind chimes, and strewn from beam to beam. This is a daily task. If I don't keep up with it (which I haven't been good about this year), the deck turns into a giant creepy web cocoon.
After de-webbing the area, I went for a peek in the birdie bucket that is sitting on a stool near the picture windows. I was so delighted to see that little yellow bird had laid three eggs!

In the next photo I put my hand in for perspective. Look how tiny they are!

| Too cute! |
Today I went out on the deck to toss a peach that was over ripe into the water (fish love old peaches. It's true!) I decided to check in on the nest while I was there and guess what?

| Now we have four eggs! |
She laid a fourth egg! Super! Yay! So cool! I'm really glad she is liking her bucket house even with us humans nosing around and checking on her progress everyday. I just think it's the sweetest. The only thing I can't figure out is how the tiny birdies are going to get OUT of the bucket when it's time.
