Seriously though, I hear of more animals that are willing to take in an orphan.

He now thinks he's a dove - but can't make the mourning dove sound! ha haRH Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497161758269292809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2112630515552086897.post-64026399155695115232012-07-14T09:00:11.911-07:002012-07-14T09:00:11.911-07:00Julie, I'm hoping I'll be able to see your...Julie, I'm hoping I'll be able to see your series on bird nests.

Been working at them for well over a year now. For the actual building of the nests, I find the Baltimore Oriel's nest absolutely amazing and the Mocking Bird's nest the worst.juliefordoliver.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186754679744000743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2112630515552086897.post-65039132745061826502012-07-14T05:08:20.235-07:002012-07-14T05:08:20.235-07:00A beautiful pastel, Carol!!
