This is a House Sparrow nest on top of my bat box! They apparently didn't like the nesting shelf - and the bats apparently don't like my bat box. :-(

One More Nest
This is a House Sparrow nest on top of my bat box! They apparently didn't like the nesting shelf - and the bats apparently don't like my bat box. :-(
The Nesting Shelf
This Barn Swallow couple, sitting on the swing in my backyard, is nesting on my front porch shelf! :-) This shelf is very versatile - Say's Phoebes (see pictures below) nested in 2007, and House Finches nested in 2008. The House Finch nest was disgusting - the poop just piled up to make the nest walls higher. My Barn Swallow nest is made of mud.

1 Fish, 2 Fish...
How in the world does a female guppy have fry when there is no daddy? Our guppy Daisy gave birth to 6 fry just days after we adopted her. This morning - 5 weeks later - we discovered 4 new fry. Now we need a bigger tank!
