the best nest

i love nests.

i am so amazed

at the industriousness of birds

who custom build them with no hands.

late last night,

i opened a little package from jan

{of jan's mac&cheese fame}.

she reads my blog, daily.

{love you, jan!}

she sent me the sweetest of nests

found along her beautiful driveway.

mossy, grassy,

lots of redwood needles...

it is an organized bit of the forest floor.

unlike any nests in my neck of the woods,

it is a little snippet of humboldt county.

i can't get over that moss edging.

maybe fairies helped to decorate it.

it is a treasure.

~ thank you, jan. ~
