What a find! That's just beautiful.
A house finch has built a nest in one of our junipers, close to the house. They're very secretive and we can't see it, but we know it's there.
Oh, I hope they survive and nothing bothers her nest until the little ones are all grown up!
RA, I thought they were beautiful too.
R, One can only hope.
That pink bill is the giveaway!
I love the field sparrow's song - like a ping-pong ball.
