A Birdie Surprise

This birdhouse has been sitting on our table for months and just the other day the girls peaked inside, and got a big surprise!  It looks like we have a nest of Nuthatches.
It's hard to tell, but there are 2 baby birds inside and they look like mini hairless chickens.  We saw the Mom inside the house yesterday, that's how we were able to identify them.
Olive drew this fantastic picture of a Nuthatch.
Here are some other birds that she saw at the bird feeder this week.  I love that my girls will spend hours outside exploring nature.

  1. Olive did an excellent drawing of a nuthatch! Also other birds she has seen recently. Glad she and Jem are so interested in birds.

I love your comments; they make my day, especially when you find an old sippy cup under the bed!
