We have a family of sparrows in our blue bird box. At first I was a little upset that the sparrows chased away the blue birds that were checking the house out. But I got over it. I opened the door and saw the neatest nest of a little bit of everything, like straw, lint, feathers, paper and string. I wish I had taken a photo of it. I kept seeing a sparrow fly in there and I thought to myself, I bet they laid eggs. Well I was right, yesterday while sitting outback in my swing and enjoying the nice weather, I heard all this commotion and looked and this is what I saw. I quick ran and got my camera. Don't you just love watching the birds??? I am keeping an eye out for their first flight, hopefully I can capture the moment.

Very cute! And what a great photo opp!
So sweet! We too have several nesting birds and are anxiously awaiting the new arrivals!
Aww!
Cute pictures. Birds keep all of those pesty insects at bay so it's advantageous having them nesting in your yard.
So precious. We have a sparrow family in one house and a bluebird family in another one. My husband just put out a new house yesterday and within 50 minutes a sparrow was already checking it out! Plus we have a barn swallow couple building a nest right outside our front door on the base of a ceiling fan. Can't wait for that one. I will be able to take pictures through the door.
