Today something very simple. My head hurts from being too ponderous.
The other morning I discovered this lovely little beauty on my walk:
There are birds all around our yard and neighborhood. Our constant companions.
I've been collecting their fallen nests for years much to my husband's chagrin.
Later when I went to look, the mother robin had returned and wouldn't let me near without making a squack.
I've tried to make nests:
But its impossible to replicate the intricate structure of woven grass and twigs made by the birds.

Two years ago I discovered an active nest in the honeysuckle on our front porch. It was high enough that the cats could not get it, but low enough that I could just peek in. This is what I found:
Over the weeks they hatched:
And grew:
And one day they were gone.

I've also had a fondness for nests and have collected them. I used to think of film editing as making a nest, you collect all these little snippets from all over the place and voila- there you have it!
