 I'm so excited that I can watch her build her nest through my window from my rocking chair.
I watered the flowers last year from the bottom and gently at the side rim so they wouldn't wilt and protect her nest.

How lovely! They are one of my favorite birds. They are always building nests in my vining roses and shrubs. Makes my heart burst when I see them :-)

Thank you Rea! I love watching her! The Titmouse build in and around my front porch every year. This year I brought this planter in front of
the window and put pansies in for shelter and pulled it closer to the middle of the porch to keep heavy rain away. The bird feeders and birdbaths are around the corner from the porch so she doesn't have to go far to eat and lots of worms because the soil under the feeders is soft from years of sunflower seeds.

That would be a funny story - "what happened to your forehead?" "A bird got me!"

Thanks Krista! I'm gonna try and get a picture before the babies fly out. They have to be tiny, Mama Titmouse is a tiny full grown bird.

Heather you are sooo right, better than wasting film!
I'm not sure yet, I haven't venture too close, the other day I watered the pot of pansies beside her pot as gently as I could, she flew out of her pot.
I'm afraid to lean in too close that she may fly into my head! Lol!!

How exciting! It's rather difficult to get their picture. I'm working on my bird badge and have deleted many photos of nothing when there was supposed to be a bird LOL! So thankful for digital pictures rather than wasting film :) How many babies are there?

Oh Thank You Wanda Sue! I just love being able to see her fly into the flower stand from my Rocking chair.
I've kept the window down nearest her nest so the noise from the TV won't scare her.

That’s a wonderful solution Connie Sue, you’re a good caretaker of Mama Titmouse.

I got a water globe for Mama Titmouse to keep the water below the nest, keeping the surface dryer.
I love this one, the top comes off no pulling it out of the soil to refill it.
