...and some bird built a nest in it. My mom's been freaking out since she saw it, because she doesn't want to flood the plant like she normally does when watering it. Well today they hatched apparently. I was going to try and get pictures but my camera is broken. Here is a rough sketch:




There's at least two of them, they look naked. Thanks to the window, I can get up really close and they won't notice, its cool, you should all be jealous.

Nobody cares, but they grew to full size and flew away today.

Ten days and they're gone. Wow.

I bet they don't come back to the nest later in life though.

Lucky birds. tongue

Aww, how cute. I had a nest of chicks just learn how to fly too in my backyard. They're so awesome.

Birds often come back to nest they were the year before - if you don't want them to come back to that specific location, buy a rubber snake and put it near/in the plant. It'll scare them away, and they'll just find somewhere else.

No, really, it worked for my mom.
