Sweet

Look Closely...

Actually, in the above picture, 

it looks like one of the white petals

is pointing to the egg.

I bought this hanging basket for the deck.

As soon as it was hung, I saw a couple of sweet,

little birds, flying in and out of the container.

They made quite a mess, at the time, knocking

off lots of the plant's blooms. I wondered what

they were doing and they were such cute birds,

I didn't care about my plant getting demolished, 

sort of... :)

Well, I like to water it with rain water so I take it 

down and put it on the patio area when it is raining.

My husband discovered the tiny nest, which I know you 

cannot really see, and two little eggs.

The trouble is, he dropped the basket and the eggs

toppled out of the little nest...  :(

I got a glove for him and he placed them carefully

back inside the nest. 

I don't know if we have ruined the beauty or not.

Anyway, we are hopeful.

It has once again ( sort of tired of all the rain ) been raining most of the day, so we have not been watching to see if the sweet mom and dad have been flying back to the nest.
