Ever since the sun came out a couple days ago, my brains sorta drained away with the melting snow and all I can think of is staying warm and cozy in my nest. Baileys [check], Vov [check], christmas candies and panettone [check, check] and a ton of cheese and salami [staples so never need to worry about checking].
The Black-Crowned Night-Herons nest in trees at the Lincoln Park Zoo. I went to see them today! It is pretty cool!
Oooh! A bird with nesting materials!
This is an exciting time of year. Just this morning, I snapped this photo of an American robin with mud and leaves, pausing before darting off toward a fresh nest site.
I love it when birds nest in my yard, but I recognize that, depending on the location, a nest can definitely derail plans for a few weeks. Nesting season means it's best to avoid trimming the trees and shrubs. And when there's a nest in my yard, I tend to watch the chick development closely and flush the yard before letting my dogs out in case we have nearby fledglings.
Malclm Ware, the Fife Recorder and I were out bird watching last weekend and we had a lovely time watching a pair of dippers nesting down the Lade Braes in St Andrews.

This is the time of year when Oropendolas build their long hanging-basket nests in the trees. I flock picks out a suitable tree, in this case a Corotu tree and there can be as many as 40-50 nests in one tree.
As you can see these are large brightly colored birds, almost cartoonish in their contrasting colors.

For the first time ever, a pair of robins built a nest in the maple tree. Crows were constantly trying to get into the maple tree, but the robins were vigilant and attacking the crows.
Though the object of my desire was not to be found at the local thrift today...these blue ladies and this Liberty House coaster set did find their way to a new home to give me a little company.
Red-winged Blackbird - female
Agelaius phoenicius
There were red-winged blackbirds all over the place on Saturday, almost all of them males. But we did catch this female gathering some materials for her nest.
The nest, in a hollow tree trunk, is beside a main footpath through the park, but the birds do not seem too perturbed although the male stands protectively on the footpath.
A visit to RSPB Bempton Cliffs reserve south of Scarborough, combined with lunch at Flamborough head, provided plenty of opportunity to observe the nesting Gannets, Fulmars and Kittiwakes at close quarters, whilst Shags were to be seen skimming the coastline just offshore. Bempton is the only mainland Gannet colony and presents quite a spectacle with thousands of birds rearing large grey fluffy chicks on the precipitous chalk cliffs
