For the past week or so I had noticed a bird flying around the wreath. I thought it must have been confused since the wreath was primarily fake flowers. What I didn't realize was that bird had built a nest and laid eggs...
As I pulled the wreath off the hanger yesterday, there was a loud splat. I looked down and there was a pile of eggs on my porch. Broken eggs. At least three, maybe more. I feel terrible! That poor mama bird, I destroyed her little family. I had no idea she would build a nest in my fake flowers, but she did.
So I hang my head in shame.
Dear Mama Bird,
I really didn't know you were using my wreath as a nest. It's an old wreath that I have used for many years. But that does not excuse my carelessness with your family. I would have loved the surprise of finding your offspring in my wreath after they were born. I am so sorry.
Sincerely,
The Careless Home Owner

Aw, that is so sad. I bet they would have given you quite a jump, the little chirps. Mama Bird picked a very interesting spot for her nest...
Aw....poor Sis. McElhaney. Even though it was an accident I know you must have felt as bad as the mama bird. :`(
Awww. I'm so sorry. You didn't know. Bless your heart. I feel sad right along with you.
Cheer up. :o)
