I’m dreaming of… A sweet vintage beach cottage… with weathered gray shingles. white paned windows and a deep porch lined in creamy hydrangeas. Peeking just inside the front door, a large foyer with painted wood walls and grand old glistening crystal chandelier welcomes you. Worn, weathered statuary and treasures from sun filled days from long…

I found this nest and robin's egg on separate occasions in my yard. The egg was unbroken, on the ground, nowhere near a tree. The nest isn't a robin's, but I don't know who it belonged to.

This cute video was recently brought to our attention that showed an adorable titmouse gleaning soft hairs from a Golden Retriever’s backside–while he continued to sleep! Birds definitely love animal hair as soft lining for their nests. It seems they can’t get enough of it! So it was just a thought that the next time you brush your dog in the winter, collect the stray hairs and save them in a bag, so that spring comes, you can supply your birds with this delightful nesting material. Cat hair, horse hair, goat hair and rabbit fur all work equally well! What other items are frequently found in nests? Unfortunately, plastic products and even plastic bags can make their way into birds’ nests. The obvious solution here is to keep the yard picked up and scout the roadside in front of your house and remove possibly unpleasant additions to your birds’ nests. But other “good” materials that birds appreciate for nests are string, thread, yarn, feathers, moss, grasses, cotton batting or natural cotton, Spanish moss, sphagnum moss and fine vines. If you knit or sew, save the yarn and thread bits in a basket or bag. When you’re cleaning the yard and […]
