I forgot it was Earth Day!! I knew but then forgot. hmmmmm what could this mean @birdsinparadise? A senior moment? lol Oh the birds nest...yes. I was so excited when I saw it. I got up very close and peeked inside. You know what the mother or father bird did? They put a pine cone in the opening I think, to stop predators from getting at the eggs or babies. There was enough room for a small bird to get in but that is it.

I have to get down to Cootes Paradise - not far from here - it's an estuary. We have bald eagles here as well as others that I don't know the names of. This area is protected. I'll do a post about it after my visit.
