Tooooo cute 
What is it about herons and wrens that is so damn amazing?
My grandmother used a "birdhouse" for fake birds and flowers for inside her home. When it came into my possession it became the wrens home. Had two unsuccessful years of the hatchlings not making it to fledglings. First year those damn starlings got 'em. The second year a snake got' em. So, put up wire mesh on the posts, chicken wire and another type of wire around the birdhouse. Have had two successful years. They're fun to watch and listen to their songs. The pic isn't so great.
We had Mourning Doves take up residence out on our fire-escape in an old copper pot.Then some moron complained about them and called them pigeons to the landlord.We came home 1 day to find the pot with their now broken nest still inside it out on the damn corner.My heart literally hurt when I saw that.My wife cried for 4 solid hours.My grandmother used a "birdhouse" for fake birds and flowers for inside her home.

Had to reply in-order to see the pic.
Odd.

Cause swallow is a bird...hehe
This is especially hilarious to me as I just watched Season 1 Episode 14 of (Comedians in cars getting coffee) last night.So every time I look at this in my mind I keep hearing Ricky Gervais lose his mind and scream like a little girl.

Upon seeing this I immediately had a song pop in my head...Thanks and cheers!

It actually reminds me of the movie Rango.
Luckily for them they're too young/small to make a good meal out of.Otherwise I'd be like "Oh look venison just waiting to happen."
the pied on top is my 7 year old. This cage is new to him this year
the cinnamon inside is 11 weeks old, and i suspect ADHD... needs ritalin or something
they are getting along ok. Quack is wise old supervisor, Ollie rebel toddler. They do bicker a bit, but mostly just leave each other a little personal bubble

Couldn't stick around and watch them do the wild thing, LOL. But, last summer, I did see two hummers doin' the wild thing, LOL.
Not a very good pics.
First time I ever had a Red Headed woodpecker at the feeders

This little beauty stayed long enough for me to take the pic.
Well, Damn ! The wire mesh did NOT work
. Had two black snakes try to get mamma and her babies. Sadly, had to kill both snakes. They would've kept on coming back. The chicken wire is keeping other birds from getting to the nest/eggs/babies. Now, the new task this summer, is to figure out a way to keep next year's Wrens safe from the snakes. The Wrens are use to seeing me, they will let me stand/sit there watching them go to & fro feeding their babies. Really don't want to move the birdhouse, but might have to - to keep them safe.
I do have a couple ideas, but would really like to hear from anyone else who might have an idea.
