Nature Lesson: Part 2

In an earlier post, I took a picture of a nest on the ground in our backyard. We checked it fervently, hoping to catch a glimpse of a hatching bird. We were finally rewarded when Brent found 2 little birds waiting impatiently for their mother to return. Over the next few days, Lillian returned to the nest to check on the birds. Nature Lesson: Part 3 When she found the birds gone one day, her assumption was that they learned to fly and flew away (doubtful when only a few days old) but we went along with it instead of telling her that Elephant, the cat, was the probable culprit.
