our birdie houses



This spring has been SO much fun! A worker on the station made several bird houses and put them around. The girls and I LOVED watching the progress! Eggs, little babies, then big birds flying away. 
In one of the nests it was fun to see 3 eggs...then the next day there was 4 eggs, and it even got up to 5 eggs!



The bird houses have a side door that opens with a clear plastic panel so you can see inside. Every day we would go check on the eggs to see if they had cracked!   

 Kate always insisted on getting a peek too!




 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 The eggs from one of the houses hatched and the little birdies just slept.

 

 A little while later (maybe a week or two) when went to check on the birds I opened the front of the house and they all flew out! It gave me quite the jump and thankfully I didn't have claire in my arms at that point! DeWit insisted that when we move to our new house we get to take a bird house with us! What an awesome guy!
