Birds

Emily has been telling us that there are birds in our attic. We thought she was dreaming. She proceeded to show me a little "hole" in the roof.

I was curious and started watching the "hole". Sure enough. Birds were coming and going. How on earth they got in there is beyond me, but they have built a nest in this tiny little hole. Now there are babies. What to do? We surely can't trap these sweet little birds in. We'll have to wait until they leave the nest and act quick!!!

Gavin had a great solution. Let's make bird feeders! The birds will leave the nest and build one in the tree instead. So this morning that's what we did!

So proud of the finished product!

They each picked the perfect branch!

  Kate spotted some birds on the neighbor's lawn and went to invite them to breakfast :)

I hope we can come up with a peaceful solution for everyone!  They sure are making a mess :/
