no babies to be

I left oine morning and saw a nest on the ground, blown out of tree, I suppose. That evening the nest had blown away but there was a pile of itty bitty eggs (about 1 cm long) which will never hatch...

Interesting capture, but as a crazy nature lover, I feel sad re the story

Too bad, they look so perfect. Beautiful capture.

@summerfield we actually have a bird incubator... have hatched out duckies in it. But when I saw the eggs, they had already been out all day. Now I feel terrible ! ! Though, not sure I would be a good bird mama. With the ducks we just shine a warm light on them and gave them some thing the store called "baby duck food
