I've seen the parent birds often perched on my weeping willow by the water almost daily for weeks. Then yesterday while I was outside, I noticed this one flew up the garage's eave. Not until I took the pix then I realized, it was nesting there. I read up on the birds, and it's said the young will fledge within couple of weeks. I wished I could get closer to the nest and see at what stage the young family is?

Oh btw, of all places. The birds have chosen right on top of our flood lights. Boys, I can imagine the shock they get everytime the lights are turned on!
