Babies!

 Two Dove & Four Robin

Two baby Dove and four baby Robin eggs. Can you believe the color of the Robin eggs. I am amazed!
The eggs cracked and birds hatched. The mothers are protective so we had to be very "covert" to get these shots.
The Dove are much more attractive at this point and have just about outgrown their "condo" on the door. The Robins on the window ledge are well guarded, pictures are hard to get. These Robin babies are pretty ugly right now...as you can see.

Robins move out Dove moves in!

The nest on the wreath has new tenants.

The robins moved out...to a new nest in the backyard.

A cute little Mourning dove moved in...

she has laid two little eggs... 

in about 10 more days we should see baby birds.

Handmade for Free...

Enter to win a handmade crochet headband.

more Chirp Chirp less Knock, Knock

I usually have a seasonal wreath on my front door...

using florals, vines, twigs, ribbons and twine.
I've even used a man-made bird nest or two.
It seems that some of my feathered friends
wanted to add a more "natural" dimension
to my creations.

Last year a couple of finches decided the wreath
was a great place to nest.

The Finches were wonderful tenants. 

They built a small nest, laid very small eggs

This year I hung the wreath and the very next day 

I noticed a bit of grass on the porch and the next day more bits of grass.

finally we noticed a much larger nest.

Robins have moved into the wreath.

there is more CHIRP CHIRP than knock knock at this door.
Will there be eggs?
Will there be baby birds?
Wait and see with me!

Do You Have a Favorite Teacher?

Give an apple to your favorite teacher!

Scentsy is introducing a Mid-Size Warmer

to commemorate Teacher Appreciation week.

ABCs is a wonderful accent for classrooms, 

offices and homes. A red apple proclaims “The best teachers teach from the heart”

letting teachers in your life know you appreciate them.

The hand-painted red apple and green stem in matte finishes

are embossed on a low-gloss blackboard-like background.

A white alphabet border completes the classroom theme.

Crafted from translucent porcelain, the letters glow from within

when the warmer is lit.

Enter to win this warmer for a favorite teacher.

The winner will be announced Monday April 26th.
