We awoke one morning to find this incredibly intricate nest made from yucca strands on our back patio. Apparently the nest was blown down by the wind. My husband very carefully nailed it to a post among our Virginia creeper vines. A couple of weeks later we heard this chatter to find the Scott’s Orioles had laid eggs and these are two of the baby birds anxiously waiting for food. We watched these babies grow and slowly begin to spread their wings till they were strong enough to fly away.
