Baby Wren!

I found the nest in the bashed-out wall of a building across the street.
Nestled in exposed insulation,
Tucked in under ragged drywall ...

Miniature white eggs, speckled with tiny brown spots.

I went back every few days to check on them.
First 2 eggs, then 5, then finally 6!

On Saturday I went back to check - the eggs were gone.
In their place was a miracle.

Tiny baby birds, barely moving in there ...
Except to lift their heads for food when I made a noise.

I took a few pictures and left.
They needed their mommy - and breakfast.

I will check again in a few days, to see how they are doing.
To see how the miracle is progressing.

Bird Condo

What a fun place for a bunch of birds to live! I didn't have to stand very long before I was able to catch some action -- a pair of birds taking turns feeding their voracious young-uns a feast of delectable lawn grubs!
