Thanks everyone.

Sad day at the Grunt house this morning. I went out early to see if I could figure out a way to get a picture of the baby birds. Sadly, the nest had been ripped from the bush and was on the ground. All that remained was the empty nest and part of the wing of the female.

Very, very sad day. I could kick myself for not being more persistent last evening to get baby pictures -- but, I didn't want to disturb them. And, daddy had buzzed me one time already just for standing in the lawn about five feet from the nest.

In a way, I hope the predator got both cardinals--otherwise, I will be seeing a very sad male with no mate.
