The wren couple came back last week and are nesting.
They're the busiest in the early mornings though I see them collecting building materials throughout the day.
We have a bird house on the back deck near the clothes tree. They will often perch on the tree to assess the situation.
Eventually they get used to me and will bop around while I sit outside on the deck a scant few feet away.
We only have them for a few weeks, June - August, but for their visit I am grateful.

for this monday moment of zen *I* am grateful.
Aww lovely. They know a good space when they see it.
You're welcome, Carla.
Thanks, Hilary.
As I walked apace to the bus stop this morning, I met two deer along the way. I spoke to them gently in an effort to quell their fears and it worked for one but not the other. They're getting more used to my presence in the early morning. It helps that I'm not walking a dog like most neighbors at that hour.
But what I'm most grateful for this morning? Having this blog entry to read as I drink my juice and prepare to meet my workday.

Some deer are warier than others. I'm sure the second one will see your light soon.
You're welcome.
Looks like they make great neighbors.
They're the best, Messymimi.
Wrens are such loud lusty singers that they bring lots of listening pleasure.
Awww...
We're noticing that only ugly birds are hanging out at our bird feeder this summer; trying not to discriminate by feeling slightly disappointed they're not more colorful. Ugly birds get hungry too!
I am sure they are grateful for a place to nest with such wonderful hosts nearby.
Red, they sure do.
Crabby, even ugly birds have their place. And they're just as hungry as the pretty ones.
Reb, thanks.
