So on the inside of our window between the screen and the window a bird built a nest and laid two eggs. We were all so excited because we can see it so well and it was really fun for the kids to check on it every day (or three times a day). Unfortunately it has a sad ending. The first egg hatched two days before the second one and it died for some reason (probably my kids scarred the mom away way to many times). So after it died the mom abandoned the nest and the next day the other egg hatched. So sadly that bird died as well with no one to take care of it (We did try sugar water but it died anyway because we waited too long). I know, why am I telling you this sad story (we did give them a good funeral)? Because another bird has landed in the same spot and has laid two more eggs. Hopefully this has a little better turnout. I'm trying to keep the kids from checking on it all the time and maybe this time we can see little birds that learn to fly. It has been just as fun for me. When do you ever get this close to a birds nest.
