Partners in Crime

OK. Is my kid a stinker or what! So Amanda the explorer found a nest in one of the trees in our backyard. Cool huh? We took pictures and were so excited when the babies hatched. Well, my sister came for a visit and with her, my niece and nephew. Well, Thomas and Harper quickly established a great friendship. They have enjoyed playing together and getting into mischief. One day they were out in the backyard for quite a while having fun. Never mess with a good thing I always say. That evening over dinner we asked them what they were doing outside together for so long. "Playing with the baby birds," they replied with a big guilty smile on their faces. "WHAT!!" Oh yes. Thomas knocked the nest down with his sword and they were literally playing with the baby birds. Growing up in a family that worked for the wildlife rescue league, my sister and I knew what to do. To make a long story short we were able to bring the birds up and release them into the wild successfully. Awesome huh?

Blessings,
