So I have a thing for nests.
For years now I have been gathering
them when storms send gathered bundles
from tree or bush to the ground.
The eggs here aren't real
and I don't know what kind
of birds have built them.
But, they are each an individual work of art.
This was used fall leaves
woven right into the nest.
I actually shared some
with daughters this spring.
Time to share the lovely.
This one has a "mud" center.
A find late winter this year.
This is a purchased nest.
Like the greens added to it.
This "nest" was made by Rebecca Ersfeld.
A vintage crochet thread
spool base with crocheted ruffle.
And a velvet ribbon handle.
Nests just seem to go
with lilies of the valley.
A few years back we made this
nest at Creative Haven.
Burlap wrapped peat pot,
and vintage book fringed
to frame the nest of spaghnum moss.
Always a way to add a breath
of spring blessings
with a nested twig globe.
Sometimes a photo edited in the
Waterlogue App brings a new view-
as colors gently fuse.
Oh, yes,
I will walk the grounds
after the next windy day.
And maybe........
