I do not normally photograph nesting birds for two reasons.
1.The risk of disturbance and therefore abandonment
2.The risk of disclosure to others.
However, while walking along the River Exe, I came across this Dipper’s nest, in a very public place and spent two fabulous hours watching, from a considerable distance, these birds. The weir was visited by a number of people during which the Dippers did not visit the nest. However, most people only spent a few minutes in the vicinity of the nest and the Dippers resumed feeding as soon as they had gone.
Matryoshka dolls -- Russian nesting dolls -- in a shop window. (I think there are 65 of them.) We strolled the Rue Bonaparte and the Rue Jacob, looking into (and occasionally going into) the great variety of shops there.

A pair of great blue herons, one stay-at-home caring the child and the other returning from a fishing trip, kiss each other while their child looked on.

Partner, if you could check out the front view and answer a few questions for me, I would really appreciate it. :)
i found this swan nesting the other day and its partner is with it as well I'm going to keep a eye on them and hopefully they will give me some cracking photos.
This was on Cunningham Island in the middle of the lake at Land Between the Lakes, KY. I took this handheld from a kayak. There were 50-75 nesting birds on the island along with several Black Crowned Night Herons, hundreds of Cormorants, and a few other assorted waterfoul.
One of several nesting pairs that inhabit live oak trees in an urban yard in Houston, Texas. Last year, there were seven or eight pairs in two adjacent trees. This is the second pair to show up this year.
From the residua left on the ground under the nests, it appears these birds enjoy a diet that includes frogs, toads, and crayfish.
We spotted this nesting common nighthawk at Big Stone National Wildlife Refuge in Minnesota.

The interior is a home dec weight fabric with fusible medium weight interfacing applied. I used size 10 cotton thread for the handstitching. The home dec inside material has been in my stash forever.

This was at the Salton Sea, CA.
These are REAL birds on REAL nests. They flew away after I took a couple photos but I swear they were really there!

They're back again this year, nesting on a much smaller island. It's illegal to interfere with a swan's nest.
We spotted this common nighthawk sitting on its nest at Big Stone National Wildlife Refuge in Minnesota. These ground nesters will incubate two eggs for 16-20 days. After 17-18 additional days, young are ready to venture out!

The female of the two oystercatchers nesting on the roof of the Royal Golf Hotel. Oystercatchers usually nest on the ground but this resourceful pair have used a flat roof at the hotel for the last 4 years. This has the advantage of making the nest safe from ground living predators but it is still at risk from all the gulls and crows that live nearby. The nest is made by scraping loose gravel into a volcano shaped mound.
There are more photographs of these birds and their family to follow!
A note to egg collectors - this was taken on April 13th and the eggs have since hatched, I have waited to post the photograph so as not to put the birds at risk.
