Happy Spring

I went for a walk this evening. I thought it might help my crummy mood. It did, AND I found a little gift waiting for me on the sidewalk!


It' so small! I believe it is a hummingbird's nest.



The intricacy is amazing to me.



It's light as a feather.



What a great First Day of Spring gift!!
Enjoy your weekend-

  1. Now see..that is the difference between us "artistic sorts" and non-artistic...I think the non artistic would see bugs, dirt and all kinds of icky things....and we (of course, being the artistic) see the magical, intricate beauty and wonder of such a thing. Isn't it funny? Rose colored glasses indeed! I'll keep mine on every chance I get. You are forunate to have received such a gift!

  2. My neighbor would not let me pick up such a thing when I found one...sad!This is lovely! I know there is a way you can heat them, if you want to.

    I think it is so cool and the pictures do not convey how small it is so I am glad you told us. I thought "shadowbox" right away but, of course, it is beautiful in its own right!

    Big hugs, sweet and funny friend!

  4. Oh how beautiful! Now aren't you glad you went on the walk? Someone was looking out for you and sent a thank you to you!

    Smile...let us know what becomes of your tiny treasure!

    I have tons of hummingbirds but have never seen a nest....guess that why I have so many...
