On the foot or so of ground between our deck and the lake - can't get much closer to nature in Spring than that ! :)
Here's hoping for healthy, happy ducklings ...
A Nuthatch was busy cleaning out a crevice in the trunk and bringing in leaves too, along the path to Friars Crag at Derwentwater. A bit of a long shot!

There has been either red-tails or great horned owls at this nest site for several years. This year the red-tails won. However, not more than 100 feet away another nest is occupies by the great horned owls. I've never known top birds of prey to tolerate each others presence so close in proximity. When eggs hatch I wonder if they will become prey to the other species? I guess time will tell and I'll have to keep an eye on them. Nez Perce county, Idaho

I was surprised to see this Robin nesting at eye level in a pine tree on my walk the other day. Couple of days later, I saw babies.

Building a nest above the Kootenay River, these osprey are settling in. The platform is built to encourage nesting. The first clue I had that they were in the area was seeing the two birds flying with one carrying a long branch for the nest.
