Description


Tree trimming time in south Florida. We have to get it done before hurricane season. A nest came down with one of the branches with six eggs inside. We rebuilt the nest as best we could and put it up in a nearby branch, with the three surviving eggs. The bird that was going crazy, up in the tree, looked like a female Grackle. I could not find any information, as to the color of grackle eggs, thus the vague title. Thanks to the tree guys for climbing up there with the nest. Photo taken today. Zoom works. Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated. Dana

It's good that they didn't end up scrambled from the fall! :~) By the image it seems great care has been taken reconstructing the nest.

The feathers present suggest something other than a grackle, but they could have just picked those up. Hope this works out well!

Lovely shot Dana but I have my doubts about whether she will accept the situation. I do hope she does.

With past experience with working with the DNR as a volunteer it's more than likely the mother bird will abandon them due to human contact...you'll know in a day or 2.....but there's always a chance she won't....I know Robin's won't return after human contact...usually the male will come to the nest and destroy them as I've personally witnessed on more than one occasion....I' hope they survive as only nature will decide...

Lots of good clarity and contrast in this pic of the feathery nest, Dana, and kudos to you and others who helped in its repair and return to the tree branch above.
