I love the sombrero :-) We have one nesting in a container on the patio. I wonder if it's the same wren that nested in the same container last year.Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09993407315693699146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327638960016684551.post-9296937026930543502011-04-23T17:08:37.332-05:002011-04-23T17:08:37.332-05:00Lancashire Rose - Actually, I have one more pretty...Lancashire Rose - Actually, I have one more pretty red painted house like the green one that I bought at the Zilker Garden Fest, but I forgot to take a picture of it!

No. But the tea pot and the old towel in the pottingshed and the plastic salad bowl with plant detritus in the greenhouse. Those are the places they like to nest. Even so, your bird houses are a delight to behold, full or empty. And I just rememebered, last year it was on the front gate in the pot with your grandfather's pipe.Rock rose https://www.blogger.com/profile/00348711150803587369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327638960016684551.post-10566972930588625452011-04-23T15:28:17.137-05:002011-04-23T15:28:17.137-05:00Getgrounded - I so wish that they would not nest i...Getgrounded - I so wish that they would not nest in such human places. Now I'm worried about those eggs. If they don't open in 14 days, they won't be hatching. But she certainly did pick some fancy digs!<br /><br />Janet - Wonder what the appeal was with the propane tank lid?!

I have one who put a nest in the top of our propane tank lid. So far we don't have any eggs. <br />You were right about the blue in the meadow, it does remind me a bit of the Bluebonnets.Janet, The Queen of Seafordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876204203323750245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7327638960016684551.post-52842105724799790192011-04-22T21:14:10.290-05:002011-04-22T21:14:10.290-05:00Ole'!
