They came, they saw, they counted the cost, they built their nest.
They taught us How it's Done.

| AWAKE! Mama sat on the nest until they woke up. She normally then leaves to go build another nest and start another family, while Daddy stays and takes care of the babies... |
 |
| ...which he was very faithful to do! |
 |
| They were constantly hungry. Daddy made sure he fed them well... |
 |
| ...but Mama also stayed around and kept watch. There were a couple of big, furry animals that both Mama and Daddy decided were not welcome. There was also a human that kept taking pictures. How rude. |
 |
| Time to fly! I wonder if Daddy and Mama were as sad about that as I am about The Parson's Daughter who is about to fly from the Homeplace... |
 |
| His 3 siblings Flew and Conquered! They joined Daddy and Mama high in the trees to start their own life. But there was just something about Him that couldn't quite make it. He flew a little, but didn't have what it took to Make His Own Way. He went to be with Jesus in the nest His Mama made for him. Matthew 10:29 Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. ...fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows. |

Awww... I collect bird nests for these reasons... Nature itself teaches each bird how to live. ... I love nests, and have a box-shaped one from the cleaned-out air con! It's a masterpiece displayed now in a glass box-shaped vase. Many Filipinos tell me, "This is the first bird nest I've seen, m'am." I can't imagine. ... The nest is a visual illustration of a Protector, Provider and loving Creator.
