Small Treasures

I took a photo of this today only because it exists.  I thought it was a great little subject for the daily photo project with Carly.  Not a breathtaking photo....but one that warms my heart.

I found this precious little nest on the ground.  It's a tiny thing, and so interesting to me because the it's creator was a bit of a scavenger.  I love the little bits of lint and fiber....and I think there's even a bit of easter grass woven through.  I'm also delighted by the three little leaves that line the inside.

The leaves inside the nest were the first thing that caught my eye.
I think it's a wonderful photo!

very cute little nest. i like watching birds & squirrels gather. i leave little strings & lint out for them under the birch tree. one day, after a few days of rainy weather, a squirrel had his mouth stuffed with so many dry leaves, i don't know how he made it back up his tree. i figured he must have been trying to sleep in a dry bed :) xoxo

I love how you see things...and especially how you describe what you see. You're a special one!
