Well on our back porch in the corner, we watched two little birds work very hard to build a nest. The tried to build it on the back patio in the roof corner, but it blew down. They then started building it in the corner underneath the back porch on a plant hook. We didn't think it could be done since it was in such an awkward place and well, there's nothing underneath it besides a hook. After a few weeks, poof, there was a mud nest. The mom and dad bird would sleep in it and do their thing. A couple weeks ago, we started to see little eggshells on the ground and we were worried that something had happened to the baby birds. Then one day, we started to see their little heads popping up over the nest. We haven't really heard too many tweets or singing thank goodness, but we do get to see them pop their heads up and sleep on the ledge of the nest when we go outside. The mom sleeps on the ledge next to the nest and the mom and dad bird will hop up on the nest to feed the birds. All around, it's a cute little family on our back porch.
