The Birds

I have to admit that I was traumatized as a child by the Alfred Hitchcock movie "The Birds". It was terrifying. But, thankfully, I have gotten through it. So, when a family of birds nested in our backyard, I was very happy for them. We've seen them flying in and out and building their nest. Birds are such amazing creatures. Recently, we realized that the momma bird laid 4 eggs. Richard peeked in last night and figured out that two of them had hatched and 2 new baby birds are born!! We took pictures, but the picture you would really like to see is the picture of me with the broom trying to protect Richard from the mad momma bird!
