Major Event



This is right after and they are singing their hearts out...
ok, ok your welcome ! 

An almost disaster prevented with the Carolina Wren Family.   As you know they hatched 2 babies in my staghorn fern and have been working oh so hard at taking good care of them. This morning while watering some plants near the fern, one of the babies decided to leave the nest, fell to the grass, the nest is only about 5 ft . off the ground.. and no they're not ready to fly... 
   Mom and Dad were frantic, baby was wondering what all the fuss was about and Grandma (that would be me) was having trouble breathing!  It's only about 15 feet to the edge of the wall of the lake.. I grabbed a soft towel, Mama is  screaming for Daddy, he's off getting grubs and worms of course. It took 2 tries to get that little thing, got it back in the nest, and all is well... Oh, I can breath again.
