Our Lightbulb Baby Birds.

Our sandbucket birds nest!

We have been in our home for a year now, and the same couple of birds have had a few babies. Our kids and us really enjoy hearing them squawk and watching the Mommy and Daddy bird providing for them.

Recently our oldest son about 4 years old, had noticed upon looking out to check on them was telling us over and over that the whole nest was scattered all over our front porch.

What should we do with baby birds? Well there were 5 babies on our porch and a very confused and excited Mommy and Daddy bird.

Well being the parents we are, my husband and I retrieved our kids sandbucket, stuffed it full of dead grass and hung as well as we could right next to our light!

Sure enough Mommy and Daddy bird came back and we all could not be happier. The sandbucket had saved the day!
