Fly Away Lil Birdies

Before we even knew it, the little birds that was residing in a little nest outside the garden, had flew off with their parents (or could be by themselves, independantly)

This obviously made me...made us (the entire household) very excited and happy for the chicks. It took them only a few weeks, from little eggs, hatchlings, chicks, and flying away as grown up birds.

I admire this bird family...how much risk the parent bird took to lay her eggs here...hatched it and took care of the hatchlings' needs daily...very protective too if I might add (from their gestures)...either one of them would be nearby...watching us, checking us out to see if we were "OK", and not intruders harming the little birds.

Then lastly, how much determination and courage the little birds took to take flight, venturing out into the open air..souring high into the unknown but with full of excitement and amazement...(dreamily imagining how it would feel like to actually fly freely high up in the sky without limitations and full of freedom)

Anyway, did I mentioned that this is the 2nd generation bird family ? It's actually the second time we managed to witness such amazing happening, right in our own garden, and in the very same nest they first built. Hope one day they'll be back, and the next, and next...3rd generation ? 4th ? etc...

Waiting for that day to come...again :)
