Thats pretty cool but what I really want is to talk about castles & stuff ! :-1

raven do you remember a while back the lil blackbird that flew in my kitchen & got stuck there?

well we named it jack - titanic - you jump i jump lol, me being scared of birds & having to get it back outside ect

welllllllllllllllllll i now have a nest in my hedge & jack's lil family hatched last weekend, all 4 of them

It's so cute! We used to have hummingbirds in L.A., and had the feeders out. The build their nest in the Joshua Trees. My kids still live in my house there, and tell me there were baby hummingbirds again this year.

http://community.webtv.net/Velpics/HUMNice pics, Rave. Hummingbirds are my favorite bird. We had a couple build a nest (looks like a small espresso cup) outside our dining room window. And have you ever seen the mating thing the male does when a female is sitting on a branch and the male comes and jogs back and fourth in mid-air very quickly, right in front of her? They're great fliers. Their wing muscles have the highest concentration of mitochondria (energy releasing cell component) of any vertebrate tissue- that's what gives them the ability to beat their wings so quickly.

That's so cool! I love learning stuff like this and I swear, I learn something new every day here...
