I saw two little birds in the nest near my house which is unprotected without their parents near them. While I was looking at them I realized that the mom bird was watching me, just to make sure I wasn’t getting to close to her babies. While she was observing me, she was looking for food to give to them. She approached the nest and fed her babies. She was trying to protect them from predators.

Did You Know:
The House Wren can be found around cities, suburbs, towns, and any open area environments creating more opportunities for us to view them.
House Wren eat insects, snails, and spiders. They capture their food in the shrubs, the trees and on the ground.
They use the woodpecker holes or bird houses for their nesting sites. The nest is built with dry, small sticks and others materials such as, feathers, hair, wool, spider cocoons, moss and trash. After the male house wren builds his nest the female will inspect it. If she doesn’t agree with the construction of his nest she will throw all unwanted building materials to the ground.

Did You Know:
Generally, in spring, the gray squirrels live on whatever buds, roots, bulbs, and flowers are available plus buried stores from the prior season. Natural food sources are your yard plants and trees that provide forage. Supplemental food, such as in a bird feeder is good, but natural foraging sources are even better.
The human help that the critters need is water, (Water can come from a bird bath or very slowly dripping faucet), natural food sources, (such as buds, roots, bulbs, flowers, seeds, berries, and nuts), and shelter, (Squirrels find shelter within the massive branches of the white oak trees that we can plant in our yards.)

Have you ever thought of how wild birds can handle the cold weather?
Another day I was having my breakfast watching the birds from my window
and this thought came to my mind.
During the cold winter months we use blankets and stay indoors where we
have heat. What about the birds? I decided to do a search through the
internet to get some knowledge about these little creatures that look
so fragile. I learned a lot of things and now I would like to share
them with you.
