Pat, I have never seen photos like that before.  They are incredible.  Just fancy having birds nesting so close to the family.  Perhaps they have heard that the people inside the house are bird lovers.

Those were such a treat to see, thanks for posting them up for us.

Anthony.

Oh Pat they are so cute.  What a joy to have a bird on your front door.  You would think that it would be scared from othe door opening and shuting all the time that it would leave.  

BTW those are very nice close up shots.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Anthony and Sonja....

That door is completely out of bounds now till the birds leave.  Janice has everyone using the back door.  It wasn't used that much anyway so maybe that's why the little mummy bird felt that it would be safe in the wreath!

Wonderful shots Pat. That open mouth is a familiar sight to you and your family. I am remembering the other pohots you posted the link to showing the baby bird that your grandchildren were caring for. Robbie the Robin I believe.

Great photos, Pat.

Reminds me of the time we had a camper and camped every weekend in the mountains.
We left the camper there and when we returned one time; we found a nest ; first the eggs ; then we watched when the little ones were born.

THe best part ; the nest was over the stove vent so I could not cook on the stove !!

Hubby had to do all cooking out on the barbecue grill !!!

Hubby thought for sure I planted that nest there myself.

Good thought !!

hahahahaha....well did ya?  Just kidding.  That is so funny!

Pat, another great series of photos.  

Joyce, did you?  

Pat, I still say you have a calling as a photo journalist!  Great series!  Thanks.

A great series of photos for your pictorial story.  Really great!!!

Thanks so much, Janet and Etta Sue!  

Wow! What a great opportunity and interesting situation. Very good photography too!

A late friend of mine in Denver lived in an appartment, second floor. Out side his window was the upper branches of a tree. A robin made her nest. Ernie set his 35mm camera up with a long lens and photographed the whole cycle from nest building to the chicks leaving the nest. I have long wished I had had such an opportunity.

Now you have one. Good for you!

Darryl

I agree, Darryl.  Pat seems to find all the cool shots.    She is always in the right spot at the right time and plus have her camera ready.

Pat    -       Great Story and Pictures !!

Though I wonder if when the this newborn feathered friend starts to practice using it's new found beak that Janice and family will be answered the front door often -  with no one there.
Tom

HAHAHA!  I'm sitting here giggling at your comment, Tom.   Thanks so much.  I didn't hear if the birds "knocked at the door or not".    But that door was "Out of Bounds" for the kids to use until those little ones flew the nest.


Darryl, thanks for your kind remarks as well.  I was just about a foot and a half away from this nest so didn't need any zoom but I'd really like to be able to upgrade my poor taped up camera.  It's just passed the 10,950 photos mark!  It's served me well.


LOL  Sonja, you have some neat shots too!  I love your photos!

I forgot to say that this year, Janice thinks that the same bird came back and built another nest in Janice's wreath on her front door and so the Christmas wreath was still up at Easter!
