Bluebirds!

This is what I've been doing lately. We had five little bluebirds in the backyard birdhouse, and they just fledged today Fortunately I was in the kitchen and saw the first one fly onto our deck right outside the back door. He sat there as if to say, "have you seen my Mama?". His siblings soon fledged, too, flying off in all different directions. It's a good thing their parents are good at rounding them up! Now we can enjoy our deck again. Dear husband was able to mow that part of the yard again, too, thank goodness! We're going to go sit on the deck and have a glass of wine tonight to celebrate!

How beautiful! We had a nest of mockingbirds fledge recently, right outside our garage window. It is a wonder to see them in the nest, with their beaks wide open being fed by the mother. I didn't even think to draw them (which is kind of unbelievable.)
