Busy Time of Year

Design - "Liberty" (kit)

Fabric - 32 count Natural linen
Fibers - WDW - 2 strands over 2 threads
Started - 4 July 2012

While many of the birds have successfully raised their families, there are still lots of birds hard at work. 

Mama and Papa House Wren spend from dawn to dusk finding food to bring back to their babies.

Here's a nice tasty earwig!  So glad the birds are catching these!

Sitting atop the nesting box with a meal.

Done and off again to hunt for more.

The Violet-green Swallows are also feeding their nestlings.

The American Goldfinches are nest building.  They are among the latest to raise a family.

The Chickadees have fledged and are hanging out in groups of 3, 4,and 5 birds.
I saw a family of Red-breasted Sapsuckers, but was not able to snap off a photo.
