Last year I found a dead little bird in our yard and couldn’t figure out where the nest was, but decided to investigate and found the nest in my bush and there were 2 other babies still there, I couldn’t decide if it had fallen out or been pushed because the other 2 were pretty secure and after that I started watching and noticed a little bird sitting guard.

I posted the below photos on another blog because I have no knowledge about birds and thought someone could tell me what they were. I thought maybe they were Finches, but really don’t know. Yesterday when I was working in the yard I saw 2 little birds flying in and out of the same bush and they were the same type. It was like they had come home and it was nice to think that the babies had made it through the Winter.

I only see this type during the Spring and Summer so I have no clue if they are like others that fly to warmer areas then return to their original nest after the cold to start their own. I enjoyed these little guys last year and had fun watching them. Even though they made a nasty mess out of my bush, there was poop every where. When it gets warmer I’ll climb up and see what’s going on in there and try not to disturb them.

The Mama bird normally set right on the edge of that garage, but the photo below I got her on the fence hopefully I’ll find out what type they are. She never stayed away from that bush for very long. Maybe I can get a close up this year.
