Birds

This year I was ready to battle the birds that keep using my porch as a nesting ground. I dislike the nest not because of the cute chicks, nor because of the circle of life. I dislike the nest being on my porch as they kill the plant that I then can not move, and play target practice with the car in the driveway.

I was thrilled when in late May it seemed they had finally given up, no trace of the beginings of a nest. I had won!

Then I found this couple on the back porch. While I had been gloating about my sucess of keeping then off the front porch they had gone around back to make a happy home.

Next year, it is war on two fronts.
