Here where I\'m Phoebes are often being heard than seen. It\'s their nesting in the garden that piqued my interest in serious birding. One early spring, a pair of Phoebes decided to build their nest on top of my garage\'s flood lights -- which prompted hubby to have to disconnect the electrical connection to the lights, for the birds\' safety... That very spring, I was lucky to have found their pledgelings gathered in a group on a tree branch awaiting for the parents to come and feed them... then I became a full pledged birder. :)
Since then, the birds did never return to the same spot to nest, I only saw them flying about the area and hear their songs....
Back to the present, another pair of Tree Swallows visited the gourd houses....more about these after I run my morning errands. Please stay tuned.
Oh, the Phoebes pledglings are still out there on the Henry Lauder walking stick\'s low branches this morning. :))
