Thinking About It

My parents are actually thinking about getting chickens in our backyard which might not be a bad idea. The only thing I'm dreading is if we would have to eat the eggs.

And if their are too many, then Mom will probably be making lots of egg breakfasts. I hate eggs. I don't mind them in things that you bake or whatever, but just eggs.

Seriously I think I'd rather eat them raw than I would cooked. I think I'll ask Mom if I could try it one day when she makes eggs again...probably Sunday. I can tell you it sounds so much tastier then fried or scrambled eggs.

Mom and Dad have been looking at chicken coup plans for a while. They want to tear down our old shed to build on top of it.

I don't know if we WILL do it or not, but I know they're thinking about it.

Baby Birds

Today, we found something very cool. Well, let me start from the beginning.

A few days ago my mom told me that there was a bird nest in the small tree right beside our shed. When I looked into it, I saw eggs! There were about four of them in all. I know it's normal for nests to have eggs in them, but, fact is, it was still kind of surprising to me. I just had never really seen a nest up close like that. Or seen eggs in a nest (not counting our lovebirds' nest).

Then today, as I was talking to Will, my mom came to me and Will and said she had heard little quiet peeps coming from the nest beside the shed in our back yard. I got something to stand on and looked inside the nest. I saw nothing at first. All I saw was movement. Then I saw a little tiny beak reach up! It was so cute! It's mouth was open and it was peeping and probably calling for its mother. I got Courtney with her camera and she took some pictures.

Aren't they cute?

Awww!

This is my favorite pic because the one's
mouth is open so wide.

Well, that's all the pictures. I think I'll stop now. Hope you liked the pictures!
