Some birds have found there way to a flowerpot my mom put up on the porch to keep the mudswallows from making a mess.
I noticed a lot of activity a couple of days ago and took the pot down to see what was going on. That's right, baby birds. Today, I took it down again (quickly) so the kids could see.
Pretty cool (and also pretty gross). I think these are house finches. And boy, do they make a racket when mom or dad comes to attend to them. That's right, no thanks, just complaining. Mom and dad bird, I sympathize.

Adorable! The flower pot is great, too - we have some at work that make a tremendous mess.

I think those are sparrows. They make a horrible mess, so hopefully it will be contained in the flower pot.
