The work began a few weeks ago, then there was a lull in activity, then, last week the construction began again!!!
It has proven to be quite interesting for Cody, look at the photos and you will see why!
Taking a well deserved construction break!!!
The nest has greatly expanded over the past few days! This week the mother bird AND the father bird were both hard at work!!! I love the "homey" touch they added by adding all of the "greenery"....they say "curb appeal" is everything and these birds sure know that!
It has been fun for Cody because we are on the second floor and he rarely gets to see birds up close. The other day when he was watching them "building" he was not only surprised, he was totally captivated! (Unfortunately I didn't get a photo of him.)
Will keep you posted on when the new tenants move into their "Tiny House" and hopefully there will be babies soon!
How exciting! It's nice to have tenants who are nice, and improve the quality of their rental. ;-)
ReplyDeleteBurds! How fun to watch!
ReplyDeleteOMC!! That will be an interesting time! Bird live tv!!
ReplyDeleteBirds are so clever - that's a perfect spot for a safe nest and to raise a family. There should be lots more very interesting Bird TV for Cody to enjoy!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
That is going to mean you'll need to be watching your tenants very carefully.
ReplyDeleteHow cool! It looks like a really wonderful spot for the birds to raise their family, and Cody must be thrilled with the extra entertainment value outside the window!
ReplyDeleteNice for them to build it where you can enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteThey find the most interesting places to build their homes.
ReplyDeleteBirds are so industrious! I love how they come back to our local CVS and build their nests inside the letter"a" LOL
ReplyDeleteBirds are very clever. Mommy says there are several nest in the top of the Hummingbird Cottage.
ReplyDeleteHow fun. Can't wait to see more photos.

I love watching birds, and of course so do the cats! We've never gotten to see nest construction up close though. What a treat!
ReplyDeleteBird's nests are just little works of art, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteAwww, how cute is this. I linked this post to Awww Mondays.
ReplyDeleteHave a purrfect day Cody. My best to your wonderful mom. ♥♥♥

So exciting ! Bird nests are real artwork ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteBest? We think it's a hotel
ReplyDeleteLily & Edward
lol!! It is a hotel I bet!
DeleteHow wonderful!!! Are they chickadees? So cute!!
ReplyDeleteMy friend said they are finches, but I am thinking chickadees like you said! That's what they look like to me. So cute!
DeleteHi Caren, It is fun to watch the nest grow full of eggs and then watch the hatchlings-however, we have found that the Poop can literally take the paint off of the house, or front door-where many a finch has made a nest. Right now we've got lots of birds that have fledglings and the amount of poop on our patio is overwhelming. I'll be glad when they've all flown the nest and moved on.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. Cant' wait to see pics of the babies.
Noreen
Hi Noreen! Funny you said that. I was speaking with the woman who works in our office where I live and she said the EXACT same thing!! Ours is on an outside wall.......we will see what happens! Not sure if I will be able to get photos of babies because of how the nest is situated, but we will see!
DeleteHow thoughtful of the neighbours to provide an exciting new TV channel.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's quite the house!
ReplyDeleteTaking a rest from building their nest. How cute and bring on the chicks!

Oh boy! You are so lucky, Cody! Enjoy the birdies.
ReplyDeleteSuch fun, to have a bird nest close enough to watch! One of my clients had birds nesting in the wreath on her front door, and she got dive bombed every time she came home until the babies grew up and flew away.
ReplyDeleteThat would be so cool to see! Cody, you are so lucky!
ReplyDeleteThose are very clever birds.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! We love it when birds build nests where we can watch them. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThat is so sweet. Every year we have several nests on the covered porch and I dread fledgling time when I save the babies from Odin, most of the time!
ReplyDeleteOh isn't that fun that they are building a nest right there. Must be great fun watching the construction. Keep us posted about the family.
ReplyDeleteI feel like it's a good sign if a birds nest is built near you! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteAs they say "From Your Mouth To God's Ears!!!" I am hoping that is true! Does it mean I will hit the lottery? lol!!! xoxo
DeleteI always love seeing where birds decide to build their nests. I'm glad these birdies are giving you a fun show to watch, Cody!
ReplyDeleteWow, very cool that birdies are building their nest right there!
ReplyDeleteHow fun for Cody to be able to see birds, especially so close up! Yes, they are wise birds to pick that spot!
ReplyDeleteHow cool! Stay safe birdies!!!! We can't wait to watch your progress.
ReplyDeleteThe Florida Furkids
Wes gots SWALLOWS!!! They has built a mud nest on the sprinkler over the sliding bedroom door to the deck! Mes is fastinated by them, but Cody, your birdies has built a much more interesting nest!
ReplyDeleteBird Tv is the bestest!
Kisses
Nellie
Whoa! Is this outside or inside? While I'm glad they're sheltered and that Cody has close up Burd-tv, I hope they won't be doing damage to your property.And wait, Cody has a BALCONY? I'm so jealous. MOL!
ReplyDeleteWHAT a joy to see for Cody and for you all. I haven;t had the privilege of a new nest at my house in almost 8 years!
