So the finches I think have finally given up. After seven full days and three different locations, mama find just keeps knocking the twigs off the the under-hangs no matter where she puts them. I even taped a small dish up there for her to use, thinking that the concave shape would help keep the twigs in. Nope. She’s just really stubborn and really really bad at nest making.
In other news, the Stump might just have a boyfriend. I caught her making seductive poses at a local kitty we call Nightfury. He’s a very friendly boy and he likes to come by and watch her, but she never lets him close.
