Update on the bird families....... The barn swallows are doing great, they're about ready to leave the nest.....we still can't tell for sure if there are 4 or 5.....
And, we're not sure if there are 2 or 3 of the baby Robins..... They're not as far along as the barnswallows, but they seem really happy and healthy.
The odd thing is the dove...... The nest is empty! There are no signs of any eggs or birds in the nest now, and the Mom has not been on it for a week. We don't know if the baby's have already grown up and left and we just missed it, or if the Mom was just pretending all the time she was setting up there and maybe just building the nest and trying it out?..... Or, if she decided for one reason or another to just move somewhere else before she laid eggs. We never did see any eggs, just her setting on the nest every day for at least a couple of weeks. Whatever, it remains a mystery to us......
