Well, if I hadn't see in all with my own eyes, I'm not sure I would have believed it! Right at two weeks, the baby birds have grown up and left the nest. From little blue eggs to sky's-the-limit in two weeks.

So last week I shared with you how we found the nest of three baby birds. What a difference a week makes! I can't believe how fast these little guys grew!

Unfortunately, it looks like one of them didn't make it and only momma knows why. I came home one day and there were two. That's nature.

Something pretty cool happened over the weekend. We found out if three baby birds in the bush are worth anything. While Heather was trimming the hedges on Saturday, she found a birds nest with a chick and two unhatched eggs!

First time I've seen a bird that young before, had probably just hatched that day and it was unbelievably cute. Every time we would jostled the bush, it's raise it's little head up with it's mouth open. We figured since it couldn't see yet it expects any kind of vibration to be momma coming home with dinner.

For awhile now I've just used this site for my e-mail address and sharing LightNet and a handful of other LightWave things. Facebook has pretty much filled in the gap of sharing pics and such with friends and family. I've had that classic problem of being too busy with other people's media to work on my own; you know the old saying, everyone has new shoes but the shoemaker's kids.
