Background - Say's Phoebe have taken over the old swallow nest by our front door:
The nest is full once again! Unfortunately, we know there are eggs already because one of them was on the front step today. Fingers crossed for the others! This bird seems to be different from the bird who nested there last year - much more friendly.
The cats were fascinated...my interactions with the bird were well observed from the front room.
Attentive audience - far left window: Suzie. Near window: Poirot (orange & white), Roll (gray)
