Small Treasures

Birds have always fascinated me. In my garden there are 4 bird baths. I have frequent visitors to them.

Their nest weaving is an exquisite creation. So much intricacy. I have a collection of fallen nests. The materials used are amazing. My latest find is a wax-eyes nest with its filigree weaving. It has a small piece of plastic woven in it. Sadly a sign of the times and available material.

My most prized nest is a goldfinch with its delicately lined inner of what looks like thistle down.

All are such clever birds.
