Finding the perfect spot,
rent-free, it’s quite a
delight to watch their
construction take shape
They flit and flutter,
occasionally carrying
out a balancing act
on a wire even higher
than their home
He looks dashing in
his red-vested tux,
and she glows in her
mother-to-be way
With their private little
home, only tiny heads
can be seen – one, then
two, but soon there will
be a complete family

This post ties into the one prior, Sweet & Cute Factor, from yesterday (June 2nd). If you haven’t already seen it, please check it out. I think you’ll enjoy. In this photo is the finch nest that ‘our’ adorable little pair created on the gazebo, tucked in and too high for us to take a peek, though.
And just a few moments ago, to our delight, the daddy eyed the bowl of water we placed on the bar. He sat on the back of the bar chair, contemplating his next move. Surprisingly, he hopped onto the side of the bowl, perched himself comfortably, and indulged in a cool sip. I’m sure it felt heavenly, since the temperature today is in the low nineties. Sadly, the photo I took didn’t turn out, so you’ll have to use your imaginations. 🙂
Hope you enjoyed this addition to the finch tale, and to be continued…
