From what we can see----and it's very dark inside that nest----there are 3. Yesterday, it was hot and since they are getting bigger, they came just outside the opening to lay in the planter. We placed a blanket on the concrete ground, just incase a falling accident occurs. The mom and dad spend a lot of time fluttering back and forth with food. It's funny to see the flight pattern they have worked out: they fly in from the back of the nest and always leave going through the honeysuckle vine. How blessed we are they are sharing their family with us!!

We Have Babies!
Look, look, we have baby birds! They are just outside our front door in a planter (now a truely dying plant, because it hasn't been watered in a while) on the wall. They are Carolina Wren's.

Love how you're so sweet to put some cushion down in case one of the little one's takes a tumble. So like you!
How come I didn't see 'em when I was there?
They are so cute.
Love, Konor

It's a good thing you don't have a cat like ME!
