Another Little Thing

I took a walk around the yard last night and came across this sweet little nest underneath our two big oaks trees. Along with many other things it looks like the birds used pieces of a horse’s mane and tail to make their little home. I’m guessing the neighbor’s horses kindly shared with the birds! It amazes me how they are able to make something so stable out of little bits of nothing. They are so resourceful. I sure hope the bird who made this little nest was done with it before it fell out of the tree. I think it’ll have a new home on my shelf next to the old doorknob that holds a few pretty bird feathers. At least  for now.
