Found a surprise today!!! A bird has built a nest in mt Sweet Surrender Rose--
right in the main crotch--lower than my eye-level. Nothing in it.....

I never noticed it before! As I have watered around there--broken off some
azalea stems--RIGHT next to it--taken several pictures of this Rose to show you---

Geez! How fast can a bird build a nest???? Unless I was just looking at it from afar?
But I walk by it many times a day--and never saw a bird near it--or flying away from it...
Mystery!

1--the nest
2--Took this picture just yesterday--you'd think i would have noticed it?
3--Here's the whole bush just now---can you see it below and to the left of the
lowest bloom? Kind of low for a nest--don't you think?

What bird would do that? A Robin?
