Saturday, while helping Tim in the yard, Ellie discovered this HUGE grasshopper on our day lily plant. Eek!! She was fascinated by him and asked me to take a photo so we could read about grasshoppers on the internet later that night. Fun little impromptu biology lesson! Later that day, while watching a pretty bird hop around in the freshly cut grass, we discovered she has a nest of babies in the tree outside my bedroom window. She would go back and forth to the nest with a beak full of food. We can barely see their little eager beaks peeking up over the sides of the nest. Every morning we hear them chirping through the window and catch glimpses of their fuzzy heads. No photos yet. . . we don't want to disturb the teeny babies!
