Blogging and Praying that I never forget these days . . . .

Chickadee Family

 This spring we got the opportunity to watch a family of birds from our kitchen.  Big Daddy gave me this awesome birdhouse with plexiglass back for Christmas.  It has suction cups on it to attach it to a window.  We put it up in late winter and waited on the birds to find it.  I happened to be home the day they started house shopping for the spring.  At that moment I got really excited and decided to document it with pictures throughout the season.  I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we have loved watching the birds build a house and then a family.
