Birders

I had that same experience of watching a cardinal couple build a nest right outside my kitchen window. I saw them sitting on the eggs, and one day they hatched. It was so exciting. I saw fuzzy little balls with beaks open wide. Then and then one day all of it was gone except for the nest and a few downy feathers and some eggshell fragments. 😢
