We have an Eastern Phoebe who returns to the same nest on a window under our front porch every year. It's always fun to watch these little guys grow, and then just disappear one day. This year, an Oriole has decided to build a nest on a tree just out from our screened-in-porch, above the kids play area. It has been fun watching them build the nest.
Unfortunately, I would have to climb REALLY high into the tree, and balance on a VERY small limb to be able to get a picture of the eggs, or little ones, inside the nest! We'll just have to be satisfied watching all the activity outside of the nest.
