Am glad to see this significant nest building. My two robins who nested each spring atop my front porch post were killed simultaneously by a passing car. Two other robins chose an unprotected spot with disastrous results in a recent strong wind. I've been concentrating on all the successful nests I cannot see. Thanks for the reminder.
Beautiful! Suzanne's story is so sad. It's amazing the tenacity that birds have while nesting. I have an image in my head of a mourning dove nesting in a tree close to my window in a lightening storm. I can still see how the flashes illuminated her as she stoically sat there. So touching.
I will tell you what I will do and what I will not do. I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it call itself my home, my fatherland, or my church: and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defence the only arms I allow myself to use - silence, exile, and cunning.

Beautiful image, dawn!
Spring brings all of this, so beautifully.
The need to create and procreate is so strong in us, we keep trying!!
Outstanding shot, Dawn.

Really great timing, an incredible work of art (compliments to both the builder and the historian) :)
