I was walking through the RV park the other morning when I saw this little bird sitting on her nest. The nest was nestled between a gap in the fencing, just the right size for her little straw incubator. She watched me walk past with a wary eye, and when I returned with my camera, she flew a short distance away, perching rather anxiously on the top of the fence. It was no wonder, since she had three or four eggs in the nest. I was trying to get a picture of them, but since the fence was taller than I was, and there was a great ditch between me and the said fence, I had to satisfy myself by standing on tip-toe, raising my arms above my head and snapping the camera blindly in the direction of the nest, hoping that I could get a decent shot. In the end, I was pleased with the results. In fact, I kind of like this little stay-at-home mother bird… she reminds me of someone I know! :)
so cute!
