Wandering Scissors

Easter morning I found a momma cardinal had made a nest in my grapefruit tree. My grapefruit tree is no taller than I am, so I am able to check the nest everyday since she was kind enough to build her next at chest level. Momma had laid two eggs, but sadly one of the chicks had died, and I don't want to know what really happened to it. During one of my daily checks I noticed one was a lot scrawnier than the other, then the next day it was gone. So I am not going to share the pictures of the two babies..too sad. Enjoy ....

Hello Momma


Isn't it the cutest thing ever!


And very hungry!

Sadly I went out the next day and something had gotten to my little baby and the nest was empty and almost upside down. I haven't seen Momma today, I hope she is ok.
