Homeless

It was not very nice out today...rainy, windy and cold so I didn't take any pictures until late this afternoon. I ran outside thinking maybe I could get a waterdrop since it had rained this afternoon but I think I found 2 puny little raindrops and this bird nest laying on the ground. I'm guessing this is an old nest from last year, at least I hope so, otherwise some little bird is now homeless. Anyway, this is it folks...this is all I could come up with today!! )

Oh, it's beautiful! It is so well woven....how do those little birds do it! Beautiful shot...it has an air of sweetness....I love it Paula!

Interesting, and it does have green in it, a hint of Spring.

[Amy Price]

Sometimes the simple ones turn out best. I like it. Nice focus too.

Really interesting find! I feel a bit sorry for the homeless bird...

[Juliette Packham]

well found. let's hope it was chucked out in the spring clean and that said bird has already built a new one!

[Kerry Bergman]

Ohhh... this one makes my heart stop for a second. The empty nest. So effective. Love it!

It's so sweet; they are so clever, those little birds.

Lovely find and I do hope it is an old nest...it looks so sad laying there but a great find for a lovely shot!

I love all the earthy tones. Great find. I sure hope it's an old nest and there is not a little birdie out there hunting for its home.

Thanks so much everyone for all the kind comments....you know it's a bad picture day when a wet muddy bird nest is all you can come up with for the day! :)

[Marinade Spatula]

such a neat little nest! Enjoyed seeing this.

[Barb Smith]

I think it's a treasure to find a bird nest and have the opportunity to view up close the incredible craftsmanship of these tiny beings. Any idea what bird built this? Lovely capture, Paula.

[FaerieMoon]

It's a neat find and a very well-made nest, actually!

Nice find, great title!
