On our last walk through the abandoned Mega Church, Sissy showed me a charming discovery, inside the wall, where vandals had bashed waist-high holes into the sheet rock.
A small brown wren had built a lovely nest within. I gasped. The brown speckled eggs snuggled into the heart shadow of nest were indeed Hidden Treasure. A few days later Sissy called to say they'd hatched! You can see these funny, wide-mouthed young'uns at Clytie's fascinating blog Random Stuff.
It seemed the perfect entry for Shadow Shot Sunday, Mother's Day AND to celebrate the wonderful day my darling Sister Clytie was born! Be sure to drop by Random Hearts to wish Sissy a Happy Birthday!

after wishing your sister a happy birthday, i just had to come back and look here a little longer! my husband and i hale from oregon, the medford area. he joined the army in november of 1974 and we never made it back :( getting to see your blog gives me a little taste of what my heart has been missing! happy mothers day to you :)
I am going to visit the birds this afternoon with mom and the girls. It's been 4 days, and I can't wait to see how they have grown!!!
Happy Mothers Day sissie!!
What a wonderful surprise! ...and a great shadow shot.
Beautiful Find.
Beautiful Shot.
What beauty in the midst of destruction. A lovely treasure indeed.
How delightful and what a wonderful way to honor your sister, love and motherhood.
That's beautiful! What a wonderful discovery! I hope you have a lovely week :)
This really neat. I keep finding old nest but the birds and eggs are long gone.
Light is everything. It is the light that brings this further alive. Gorgeous.
(My sister's birthday too.)
