ABC Wednesday: N is for Nest

The nuthatch needs a nest and claims this nifty nesting box nestled under my roof eaves.

In the spring newly hatched nuthatches are quite noisy and mom leaves to get nourishment.

At summer's end when the leaves fall off the vine, a nest from the past spring is revealed.

Another nest was built deep in the bushes which I avoid pruning until the babies were all grown up.
The next nest was built high up in the pine trees.

While new buds formed on the tulip tree an old nest sat exposed until spring leaves covered it again.
