Tis' nesting time again

  As the days get warmer the birds gather the straw, twigs and mud. They place it carefully in their chosen spot.
 Here are two swallows. The first birds this year I've seen nesting! Soon there will be more birds and I can't wait to see them! 
 Last year I found a Bellbird nest. I visited it once and left the tracks unclear so as not to bring attention to it. What I didn't do was stay only a short time. Next time I went the chicks where gone.
 This year I will be more careful.
  I'm seeing tui and bellbird showing off, flowers budding all signs that it is spring!
