Wet Nests

These geese must be new at nests. Side by side they sat in the middle of the bog at Indiana Dunes with barely an inch above the water line. This weekend's snow will surely wash out the nests and hopefully they'll learn to do better next time.

I've seen Swans do the same thing---with a  drowned out nest or two but eventually come back and have a successful nest with as much as seven signets.

The ultimate tweeter

Birds find all sorts of original ways to get along with us humans.

 Each morning for the last two weeks this bird has sat on the speaker. He sits there guarding his nest in that speaker.

The baby birds inside tweet and the tweet gets amplified creating the all tweeter network of Northwest Indiana.
