I was at the lake when I ran into Mama Cardinal who was gathering nesting material. It is the female who does most of the nest building.

I believe this is a Queen Yellow Jacket. She is currently the only resident of this nest and its quite small...used Macro to get close up. Also that is the back of her, stinger, and all. She has decided to set up residence in the right corner of my front door. Ugh.
Still only got limited internet so I can only upload the odd photo. Excuse me not commenting until I have more bandwidth.
Campismo Quinta de Odelouca, southern Portugal.
Taken this morning in our garden. Our Blireiana plum trees are in full bloom – over a month early!
Hope this brings you a taste of spring, even if you are still having snow.
As always, thank you for your visits and comments. If you've added me as a contact recently, I will do my best to visit you very soon. Life seems awfully busy this year...

Wrens are round-bodied, short-tailed and short-winged, with pointed bills and quite strong feet. They explore shady, overgrown places low down, on or near the ground, for small insects and spiders.
Taken in the city of Nairobi. The stork's nest all over the city, but more near the soccer field. They are the clean up committee of the city. the city streets are lined with trees and this is what is in them.
A section from a tree on a lake in Greece, filled with nesting squacco herons (Ardeola ralloides) like the one in front, little egrets (Egretta garzetta) like the one in the back, and great cormorants as well.

While walking around a local nature reserve, I found this pair of whitethroat, building a nest, so with a bit of Patients, I managed to get close enough for a couple of decent shot, I'm am very happy with these shots, I really hope that you like them to...
fun set of rainbow nesting bowls made with Nova's Fabric Nesting Bowls Pattern! (and i only made six bowls, i photoshopped the four shelves of them together to show them in use!!) But how awesome would a whole wall of them be?!!
On the same day a sparrowhawk visited our garden, a squirrel was also on its way with nesting material.
During its walk, it wanted to stop for a snack.
The squirrel completely forgot that it had put the nesting material down there.
Eating with nesting material in your mouth is impossible!
But like squirrels always do, after the snack, it completely forgot what it was doing.
That way, I was able to get a good photo of the little ball.
I was shocked to discover this Red-throated Loon nesting essentially in plain sight, but still very well hidden, in a pond just at the edge of town.
Taken 15 June 2023 at Nome, Alaska
Here are some more images from this morning's observations of the activity. Nesting material being brought in, feasting on breakfast, and repositioning on a branch.
Jackdaws are the smallest member of the crow family (collectively known as corvids), which also includes ravens, crows, rooks, jays and magpies.
Like most of their cousins, jackdaws are just as much at home in farmland and woodland, as they are in urban landscapes. The latter is thanks to their adaptability and intelligence.
