Backyard Birdy

Seth and I were outside and saw a bird on the fence above our garden. She dove down into the butterfly bush and we heard a baby chirping.

We wanted to see if we could find a nest, so we started looking through the bush and we found this cute little baby bird hopping around.

She hopped all the way to the other end of our garden and eventually went down the brick wall and started hopping around the backyard along the edge of the fence.

The entire time, the mommy bird kept flying away and returning with food. Every time she came back, she would call to her baby and as soon as the baby would answer, she would swoop down and feed it wherever it was.

Seth found a worm and wanted to give it to the mommy bird so she could feed it to the baby. He threw it toward the bird so she could get it, but I think she was intimidated by the size of it. It was a big worm!
