Breathtaking

Just look at this beautiful little thing that Jonah found.  Apparently it came down in the storm the other day.  I can't imagine that the whole nest is there-- it must have lost it's sides.  The nest seems far to small for the egg, cracked and glued down with it's own contents.  Some mama bird lost all her hard work in the storm that suddenly dumped nearly three inches of rain on us.

I find this little bit of nature so stunning to look at. It sits in my kitchen windowsill, and every time I see it, I catch my breath.
