Nesting Roadrunner Style

Beep!   Beep!


Here are a couple of shots from out the front door. The last few days, as soon as the sun comes up, our state birds are gathering sticks…and they make a return trip to the supply depot about every 4 minutes.  Even the street sweeper didn’t deter them from their appointed rounds.  Time must be of the essence.








And we’ve found the nest high in a pine tree at the corner of the house. 

Question…how do you spot a birds nest?   Look for lots of poop on the ground…

Mommy and Daddy stay together for life.  Have 2 or 3 nests a year.  Lay 2 or 3 eggs.  Mom & Dad take turns sitting.

Our guard dog saw one thru the window the other day and just growled…didn’t bark!   

I think animals know when to just watch and let nature take its course.
