occupational therapy every day for my hands, as well as physical therapy in hopes of being able to stand up again eventually, and maybe walk.

I view posting comments & videos as a kind of occupational therapy, so I consider it time well spent, when I can manage to do it.

The "eggs" hatched before they could get the nest built.

Absolutely love this. Reminds me of our dove that takes skinny sticks and crosses them over each other to build her nest. I swear she uses less then 10 sticks for her nest. Funny to watch, it takes about oh, may-be 15 to 20 minutes to build, she gets on has at least 5 batches of babies and she’s done for the year.......I swear she’s on her nest dang near all Spring and most of the Summer. I don’t know how she does it.

I am always amazed and pleased when people here post videos showing two different animals getting along so well.

We humans should be more like them.
