Mama sitting on nest

It has been awhile since I have even thought of writing on my Blog. I have been busy watching the new family that has moved in on our hot water heater. I have been trying to let the mother know that maybe she should think about paying rent, at least pay for the security Marlene and I have been providing from our three vicious dogs. I spent many hours watching her as she flew around making her home/nest. It took her a few days. She had been sitting in the nest for around three days, when she finally flew off to get something to eat I think or maybe to distract me from her eggs. As soon as she left I climbed up the little hill to look down on the nest and there I saw two perfect eggs. Snap, snap, snap from the hill and I was just about getting another snap when she returned to her eggs so camera was but aside and I just watched her from the distance sitting on her eggs keeping them warm. Couple of nights I had to go out to get the dogs away from that area. I knew they could not reach her but I felt they were making too much racket for a mother in waiting. Well last night we had two eggs and this morning around noon, mama flew off and there were two beautiful babies/chick in the nest. Again I am viewing from the hill; I was so excited I almost forgot to snap the new little ones. Marlene came out to see the little chicks and that brought me back to earth. Snap, snap, Mama is back. Hope to keep recording the development of the wee ones. The things I am experiencing, money could never buy. I am so Blessed..
