birds

I had some birds that were building a nest in the wreath on my door every day and every day I would through their little nest out.  I finally put the wreath in the house and by the time I noticed the little birds had built a nest in my hanging plant they had 3 eggs in it!  Of course I couldn't throw out the eggs, so I decided to let them be.  The next day there were four eggs!  They are purple finches and I found out online that they took 13 days to hatch and then 14 more days to fly away.  So yesterday I noticed one little chicky had hatched!
Nile thinks it's really cool!
