Paynes Prairie - La Chua Trail. This section was fenced off for safety of the nest and the visitors from the female guarding her nest.
...a little hummingbird gathering nest liner I have hanging in the back yard... altho taken thru the window and on wrong camera settings...I was happy to finally catch one using the raw fiber of some sort I bought a few months ago at a wild bird shop. I was skeptical they liked it, because it's been out for months! hehehehehe she has a mouthful!. They like it!

DSC_3864: Nesting Osprey on July 3rd, 2014 at Grand Lake, New Brunswick. I spent about 30 minutes taking pics and videos of this very cooperative subject on her nest today. She wasn't afraid of me at all, and just sat on top of her nest brooding over her young one.
Double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) nesting in red mangrove on the ragged keys. Biscayne Bay National Park, Florida.
This dense bushy foliage is typically where the Red Winged Blackbirds make their nests. All bushes were completely submerged...and look like this.
I must say that though most of the rest of the bird population seems to have relocated for the time being, the Red Wings are still present in apparent full population. And they are still agressively defending the bushes, whatever that means.
Hand-tied whole cloth quilt made with Heather Ross fabric. Appliqued with a large Matryoshka doll to cover burn holes from a dryer fire. Backed with fleece. I made this for my daughter to use at nap time at Nursery School. She is in love with Nesting Dolls and refers to them as "Open Babies".

Connie: No Mama Wubba that's no nesting material. That's Kiki's hair
Kiki: Yes that's my hair. Thx sis.
Connie and Kiki: Happy Wubba Wednesday dear flickr peeps!
The nest on the beach were impressive enough, and packed, but the crazy ones were those back in the forest. Forest penguins! Fluffy brown chicks, too.
Same swan, different angle---this poor thing made it's nest about three feet from the busiest intersection in the park---hope the baby makes it through!!
Kind of reminds me of Jack and the beanstalk.

Nesting mother earth for our future friends by shielding against all possible harms with possible measures.
Rip Rap Islands serve as crucial nesting ground for seabirds near the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel in coastal Virginia. Currently, species that rely on the island include the royal tern, common tern, gull-billed tern, sandwich tern, herring gull, laughing gull, great black-backed gull, black skimmer, and snowy egret.
For decades before the expansion of the HRBT, two artificial islands anchored the underwater tunnels and housed the large colony of seabirds. The construction made these islands unsuitable nesting grounds.
In February 2020, Virginia Governor Ralph Northam tasked the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources with relocating the colony. A quick yet massive renovation of Fort Wool, a Civil War-era military installment built in 1819, transformed Rip Rap Islands into a landscape for the seabird colony similar to the barrier islands. Along with Fort Wool, DWR leased three flat-top barges to create additional habitat next to Rip Rap Islands for the birds to nest. July 15, 2021 (Photo by Aileen Devlin | Virginia Sea Grant)

I've finished the presentation I've been working on for the special program at the zoo. It contains shots I've taken at five or six different zoos. When I was preparing the Powerpoint, I needed a shot of an ostrich nesting, but hadn't posted one to my photostream. Here's one, so I can look it up in the future! This one often lays eggs.
