That is so cool :thumbs:

Thanks PB

I have a nest of Eastern Towhees on top of my air conditioner sticking out of the side of my garage. The mommy has already raised one set of babies this year and the second set of eggs just hatched about a week ago.

That's cool CC, got any pics?

Nah, my digital camera is a cheap piece of junk AND the nest is in a horrible location for pictures

I have two air conditioners in the garage, one on top of the other and they are only about six inches apart. The nest is on the lower one so it's impossible to photograph the nest without a mirror AND lights or something that is beyond my photographic capabilities.

When the babies start getting nearly ready to leave the nest, the mommy get's awfully nasty if I get anywhere near the nest :0 :0

Swooping at me, screaming, etc. :0 so I try to leave well enough alone

Good idea bro. Sometimes it is best to leave nature alone
