For the life of her she couldn't get the "money" shot
she wanted.
It was definitely too dark and well the babies were
screaming for food.
So all the pretty flowers got a nice soaking!
We hope you enjoyed this unusual visit to the
garden and we hope you garden is growing!

Sad news to report.
Since we had crafted this post there is an update.
Yesterday while I was on the back porch.
I heard the parent birds chirping their warning.
I couldn't see anything.
But, I figured there was some danger.
Later on I went to check the nest and
all four chicks are gone.
It must have been a snake.
The parents have still been coming with food
to the nest and it's sad and cruel,
but it's the way of nature.
Oh such a sweet little birdy!
ReplyDeleteThat is very sad news about the baby birds. :-(
ReplyDeleteHow sad about the baby birds. Thanks for sharing the photos you had of them.

ReplyDeleteOh no! We so sorry for the baby birds and their poor Mommy and Daddy. They all so cute. Our Mumsy wuzes the birds and keeps food in their feeder in back. Well, you still have such a pretty garden. We are sure there will be more baby birds singing out there soon.
ReplyDeleteHugs to everyone.
Hi Abby!
Yes, that is so sad for the birdies.
ReplyDeleteoh my! And peeps think birdies don't have feelings...hah!
ReplyDeleteSo, so sad about those baby birdies. We always have nests in our carport, but they are thankfully about 20 feet from the ground. The mommy and daddy birds must be wondering where their kids have gone. We love visiting your garden each Thursday. Thanks for sharing. Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
