nest full of blackbirds


lately i have had these really strong feelings when i am supposed to go in a forest. I have begun to call that 6th sense of nature. 

i was going to do some garden works, when i (once again) felt that i should take a little stroll in to the hill forest and take my camera with me (which i did not do).  i saw a blackbird flying off the cliff and went at that direction. i saw a bundle of grass and twigs on the cliff, my heart was flying like a butterfly when i realized what i have discovered, an blackbirds nest! i had become in the right time, since i was witnessing how a little bird was hatching off the last egg. i admired the nest for awhile and then went to pick my camera, hoping that my tricky camera batteries would let me take few photos, and it did! i went away, since i thought i should let the mother bird feed the babies. but i returned later and saw that the last egg was gone and the nest was full of bird babies.


of course it bothered me that i did not saw nest full of those incredibly beautiful eggs, but then i saw something which was truly an miracle. 
nature truly make the wishes come true, since lately i had hoped and dreamed that i could find a blackbird nest.
i am grateful, grateful, grateful of this nature miracle.

  2. oh delila. such a magical moment, out in our beloved natural world!!!! i love coming here to visit, so much. your blog is beautiful, so much a reflection of your spirit. the blue lettering looks lovely on the natural colored background, and mirrors the lovely blue eggs.
    i wish we were not separated by ocean; i feel that we would be enjoying many wonderful walks together in enchanted woods, if we didn't have so many miles and water separating us. xoxo
