So I'm working on the elusive garden cottage today...
I swear there's a post coming any day now about it...
I had walked past a secret that nature left me about twenty times when I finally noticed this...
A sweet little nest inside a rusty sconce that flanks one side of the door into the cottage...
But then I noticed this... Do you see it?
The egg had fallen out of the nest and wedged between a garden pot that the nest is built on top of and the sconce... What to do, what to do?
I know you aren't supposed to touch the egg, but I thought the egg had no chance where it was and maybe the mama has even abandoned it already...
So I carefully lifted the nest and pot trying ever so hard to touch the nest as little as possible... Then using a plastic spoon I lifted the egg and place it back inside the nest where the mama left it.
I hope she comes back and thinks something magic has happened... I wonder if she is somewhere fretting over her lost baby... Do birds fret?
I'll be keeping an eye on the egg now... Let's keep our fingers crossed...
