For last week's #SMaP I found a Robin's nest in a tree next to our garden. Being that the nest was only about five feet off the ground, I was able to photograph what would become a nursery and watch #nature unfold.
With this week's theme also giving us birdwatchers the opportunity to freelance, I'll show you how the hatchlings are doing this week. This is how we left them seven days ago.
The nest had four eggs in it and only three #fledglings now occupy that space, that's unless the fourth little bird is buried under its siblings. What used to look like a roomy situation is now exploding at the seams.
I had started early in the morning sowing the vegetable plants I had been #nurturing for the past six weeks. With that hobbitational activity completed a sense of accomplishment washed over me. For one more year, we would be providing for ourselves.
As I sat back gloating, admiring my deeds, one of the new parents of the fledglings was busy, very busy. With all of those mouths to feed, worms would be on the menu for their offspring.
I would like to have the 2nd picture to be the one entered for the contest, thank you.
Thank you @melinda010100 @barbara-orenya and @nelinoeva for another #featheredfriend adventure, #SMaP 168.
