A Little Nature

Doing a little light yard work the other day and noticed a nest in our cherry tree. Since the tree is done bearing fruit I left it alone. The bird has laid her eggs and is sitting on them protectively. Every time I come near the tree the birds make a lot of noise but the mother does not fly off. I stay away so not to scare them away from the nest. Here is an image of the mother in the nest. I am looking forward to seeing the baby birds.
