MAMA ON GUARD


I was worried that the bad stormy weather last night might have harmed the nest and the eggs but this morning when I went out to check mama was on the nest and I kind of surprised her (and she surprised me) and she perched on the edge of the flower post and was checking out all directions. I froze as I was with the camera in my hand and clicked . She flew into the tree but did not go far.
The weather was rough here (at 3:00 a.m.) for about 25 minutes and we collected 2.36 inches of rain in that time. It was really pouring down and I could not see out of my own yard. I had had Sam put a support post against the baker's rack so it would not topple in the weather.
