Camera Critters #58
When we were having our house built, we had the choice between a Pine Tree and an Oak Tree. I didn't even have to think about it. I wanted the oak.
It has survived heavy rains and was shelter to all the spiders looking for dry land.
It has survived tropical storms and hurricanes.
It lived through a snow storm in Houston.
And it is now providing a safe place for a Mama Bird to await the hatching of her babies.
We ♥ our tree!

Wonderful seeing survival like this! And through it all, your tree just grows more beautiful each day! And the little birds are only too happy to enjoy it!
Is that a mourning dove? I have not seen a nest in so long. The good nesting tree near my house is so thick you can't see a thing! I am sure there are birds or maybe squirrels in there!

Great photos!
Awwww!!! Yay birdies!!!!
Good call on the tree and Mama dove looks so grateful.
We are a confirmed tree-hugging family and you can't beat an oak!
It looks like you came to my house and photographed the tree in my front yard. I didn't think it survived the first winter, but it did and is flourishing now - and supporting bird families! What a great progression of photos!
Great series and a surprise ending. :)
What a cool story in photos...
Mama bird looks so comfortable in your tree :-)
This was a fabulous post! Loved all the photos.
Oh, what a great pictorial post. Excellent!
great! We have 2 and they shade the whole front yard!! love the pics!
I have an award for you over on my blog!
Awwww...that's cool. Every year, I've had morning doves nest in my Japanese dogwood, but every year, something (STUPID BLACKBIRDS) come and steal the egg. Hope you get babies soon!
And your tree loves you!
:-)
Baby birdies. How cute. We have some nests around our place too, and I love how protective and caring the momma birds are when it comes to minding their nests and little birdies.
