really nice job.
We have a rose of sharon tree right outside our bedroom window, that has a robin's nest.  It is continuely used. There is a nesting bird in it right now.
Last year I needed to trim it, due to the satillite dish, the tree is right in front and if it gets too big, the reception goes bonkers. Anyways, last year while trimming, I thought it was empty. NOPE. A little bird can out, flapping and scared. I was earing gloves and picked it up and put it back in the nest. For the next few days, I hoped mama bird would return and take care of it. I read on line that birds can have a poor sense of smell and it should be alright. After about three days, I saw mama bird with the young one. I was relieved and even got a chance to see the young bird leave the nest, take short hops and leave with one of the parents.

It's hard to see where the nest is, but it's near the end of the green fence (in the first photo) in that clump of dead branches.  Today we peeked in while the birds were gone and seen they have 1 little baby bird.  The little guy is growing fast and will just needs to make it about 2 more weeks until he can fly.
