I had removed the nest from the door before she had eggs one time, and she got MAD, kept chirping at me. She kept rebuilding, but finally gave up and left my unfriendly front door! Cute birds, but then not so cute :)Muchehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08491471829047068926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993076650660686412.post-7336553564935919822010-03-31T12:38:02.967-07:002010-03-31T12:38:02.967-07:00Emily,

A few more months, and we'll be right there with you (if I can muster the patience). I feel the same way about marigolds. My mother always planted them, but I never understood her love for them. Now, my garden isn't complete without that splash of orange.<br /><br />When I lived in New York, they were remodeling our ward house. We were a Singles Branch, so we were quite small. We met in the gym while the other wards took the chapel and the classrooms. Two birds decided to establish their homes in the rafters of the gym. Then, they had babies. It always makes me smile to think of bird chirping during the silence of the sacrament. And there was the one time that a friend of mine got some poop on the cheek during Sunday School.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16623281624808511092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993076650660686412.post-16911920296408522292010-03-27T18:39:26.673-07:002010-03-27T18:39:26.673-07:00yes. we have lots of bugs at our door. what shou...yes. we have lots of bugs at our door. what should i do? help!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13603494913454324767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993076650660686412.post-45537432046285455692010-03-27T18:33:33.850-07:002010-03-27T18:33:33.850-07:00I just had two birds in the house, it was a couple...I just had two birds in the house, it was a couple, because once I got one out, it kept calling the other inside like crazy. Poor little scare birdies, their heart were going a hundred mile/hour when I held them!

What is with you?? (And I ask that in a loving/non-envious way, really.)<br /><br />Your photos are so good--your yard looks beautiful. I planted tulips for the first time last fall and they actually are coming up--I am thrilled. I so want to be that gardening old lady--I'm working on it! (in skills as well as years.)<br /><br />The bird story's great--what a neat experience for your kids, though not so much for you. I rented "The Birds" on the first Halloween Derrick and I were married, and couldn't believe how scary a movie about birds could be. All those black birds on the rooftops? Still gives me chills.<br /><br />Great post!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06524085442453544734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993076650660686412.post-42826325375449859012010-03-25T14:39:12.584-07:002010-03-25T14:39:12.584-07:00That happened in our garage yesterday.

There is a bird perched on each one. Not sure what kind they are, (blue birds? They are blue) but they only sit at night. I hope there are no nests for the same reasons you are paranoid. Keep us posted on the outcome. This is funny.Melishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263108535241798112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993076650660686412.post-21086466598211726792010-03-25T08:08:16.113-07:002010-03-25T08:08:16.113-07:00I've had at least three birds fly in my house....I've had at least three birds fly in my house.

I love your plantars and the flowers you chose. I'm so ready for spring and some colorful plantings of my own.:-) <br /><br />We had birds make a nest on our door in Jan. and one flew inside when our home teachers came over. We still had our Christmas tree up so it flew right to the tree. It was a crazy scene at our home with my husband and home teachers trying to get that bird back outside. But finally it did and we haven't seen either bird since then. <br /><br />Good luck with the bird and the egg. It's a neat experience for the kids to see it hatch.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10678275264010129385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993076650660686412.post-30540784552203519692010-03-24T12:28:39.937-07:002010-03-24T12:28:39.937-07:00I used to occasionally get birds in my house when ...I used to occasionally get birds in my house when we lived in AZ. I can remember chasing them around with a broom while my kids chased them screaming with joy. Much more fun for the kids than the mom.Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17787634775454762018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5993076650660686412.post-57451832976256482122010-03-24T12:21:43.870-07:002010-03-24T12:21:43.870-07:00wow! the bird is a tricky situation isn't it?...wow! the bird is a tricky situation isn't it? Darn. <br /><br />I didn't always love marigolds either, but have changed my mind in recent years. They just grow so well, never stop blooming, and are so bright and cheerful! They are, most importantly, hard to kill unlike several other plants I've tried!Stepihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930595964212336872noreply@blogger.com
