You have to get up pretty early in the morning to sneak one by me, when it comes to critters anyway. A pair of House Finches had been hanging around and eyeing this one particular dogwood-type scrub of ours. When fully leafed, it's hard to make out the trunk and branches, however, I spied these dudes setting up shop as the leaves were starting to pop.
Anyway, they're tiny birds, that make a tiny nest with equally as tiny little blue eggs. We're not sure how many eggs are in there now, guessing more than the one shown in the picture. The mother blends in so well and she doesn't panic and dart off the next, rather she sits tights keeping a close eye.
Hoping well get a glimpse of the babies here soon.
