Dave...thank you so much!! It was the picture that has driven me for over 2 months to lure the BB's to my yard. After the above pic was taken I went outside and sat in my car before the crack of dawn just to wait for them to show up!! They didn't disappoint me and I had as many as 9 show up at one time just to get the water. I will never forget that feeling I felt as they came flying in just at the first crack of dawn..it was awesome! Did I say I did that for over 3 weeks? LOL! Obsessive, compulsive and just plain nuts!! I love the above pics of your happy couple together...how long does she stay away from the nest?

Muddylou...I will try what you have suggested...except I will have to get a whistle as I can't whistle anymore (old, ya know)! I must order more worms tomorrow as I am almost out and they aren't very nice looking anymore. I would love to have them close with the new babies!! Thanks for all you advise I am such novice and I'm sure the BB's would agree!

I confessed on the Daily Pic thread so I might as well spill the beans here too...I interrupted her AGAIN today!!! If I had a brain I would be dangerous!! Anyway...4 eggs now and I hope she starts setting on them. I wish I could do it for her just so I don't have to worry but I don't think that is gonna happen!! The Daddy came to visit this eve and let me get closer to get a pic...he doesn't fly off as soon as he used to!
