Seen in my garden this morning. Watched as he took this material to the nesting box that is on our back wall. Glad to see it being used.
Seems with the sunshine, the sparrows and blackbirds and now thew blue tits have been seen carrying nesting material.
Quite a site to find these young Eagles nesting on the ground; well, half-nesting. The nest must have been used continuously, each season, as one day the tree it was perched in couldn't support the weight anymore, and half of it broke and fell to the ground. That didn't stop the eagles from using the nest though, and the small island that it rested on appeared to be free of any other predators.
Some nice eggs into the nest. A work made in the past, but now presented to Land art Connection works. Theme for November: Nesting. Made in Ripoll- Girona- Catalunya- Spain.

It is amazing just how big a Bald Eagle is! It is hard to see if an Eagle is in it as you have to be far away from the nest to be able to see if anything is visible above the nest line.
We took the Loon nesting area signs down yesterday. It's been another successful year, one chick born and it's doing well.
When you're a novice chicken owner like me and you have questions about your hens, you go online to research. When you do so, you come across any number of beautiful, Pinterest worthy blogs devoted entirely to hobby chicken ownership, coop and run care, and keeping your flock as happy and kodak-moment ready as a group of six-year-olds at a birthday party.
These blogs have all of the correct answers, and you will feel like a neglectful and selfish bird owner stuck in the dark ages of animal husbandry. You will also wonder how these people keep their yards so beautifully manicured whilst their flock of 20 heirloom heritage breeds free-range their way through the garden.
I got SO MUCH ATTITUDE from the fam for not buying this bra-and-panty set. All I can say is that I couldn't imagine calmly trying on silly underwears while one of the ever-hovering salespeople was around. I am not as crazy buff as I would have to be to handle that situation with grace.
Plus, as was later pointed out, you have to buy at least three sets in escalating cup sizes to make the joke really work.

I think the little Burrowing Owls that live in the Conservatory at the Calgary Zoo are nesting or perhaps getting ready to nest? They are noisier than usual. They are one of my favourite birds and it is good to know that there are programs out there trying to protect this endanged species.
Interestingly, the gulls circling high here fill the role that raptors would fill, if they were here: they are carnivores, and they will prey on the guillemots.
Night before GB arrived. We had been to the Obstetrician who said GeeBee was engaged, and there was a 94% chance she would arrive before she had to be induced the following week.
I went for 2 walks on the beach and we had a hot green curry for dinner. This photo was taken at 10pm when I decided that our bedroom drawers needed to be contacted! Needless to say, I started having my first contractions at 2am that night!!
This female blackbird is nesting on top of a light in a corridor to a row of council owned flats, near to my place of work, even at this time of year the light still comes on at dusk and off at dawn providing her with extra heat for the eggs.

We got very lucky. At 10 p.m. we started our trip to the beach to see the leatherback turtles nesting. Our guide told us to wait on the beach while he went to see if he can find any turtles nesting, and after waiting just around 15 minutes we suddenly saw a turtle coming out of the water right where we sat waiting for our guide! We had to stay quietly in the dark for about an hour while the turtle climb up the pretty steep beach pulling herself up with her front flippers, and then dug a deep hole in the sand with her back flippers. The guides warned us that we only can turn the lights on and take photos after the eggs start to come out, and all the light must come only from the back. Here is that very moment.
And I wasn't the only slave to my nesting instinct. The people I know who used to sit in the bathroom with pornography, now they sit in the bathroom with their IKEA furniture catalogue. ~Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club, Chapter 5
