I Love and Respect Nature~

NOTE:  THIS POST IS IN NO WAY INTENDED TO OFFEND ANYONE OR REFERRING TO ANYONE IN PARTICULAR.  IT IS MERELY AN OBSERVATION AND MY OWN PERSONAL PREFERENCE.

 I'm always seeing these beautiful displays with bird nests and anything that is growing pretty in the wild and I just love the natural look of it all.  I admit, I have thought about using the real thing in my displays but can't make myself to take a home away from a helpless little bird.  So I always make my own out of twigs, dried tall grass and anything that is pliable enough to shape into a nest. This weekend, while cleaning up the yard, we found a precious bird nest in one of our trees.  There was no sign of any Momma or Bebe's in the nest, so my husband carefully cut the branch with the nest in it. 
(no birds were harmed while removing the branch)

You will be happy to know that we returned the nest back in the tree so future birds will have a safe place to rest and stay out of the elements.

Have a great week!

  1. Beautiful nest. I think that's great you make your own and could not agree more about leaving them in their original place to be re-used by our feathered friends. Happy week!
