I have four fallen nests from Wrens and other small songbirds, and two have hair from my Black Lab woven into them. The other two I found our here at the ‘new’ farm and they have Ithaca tail and mane hair in them.
Nature wastes nothing! :)
Weather analysis: Not looking good for any widespread rainfall anytime soon
“Bottom line: we are in a dry pattern for quite some time with some hit-and-miss showers and thunderstorms. This could lead to abnormally dry conditions across the area, especially if June precipitation totals are far below average.”
SW Wisconsin may be going into a drought. My fruit trees are suffering, as are the berries and grapes, so I am giving them all a good soaking this morning.
Weather in the 80’s and 90’s this upcoming week. No rain. :( We’ve had 1-inch of rain for the entire month of May.
On the Bright Side? Less moisture, LESS BUGS! :)
We had nests with ‘Twinkle’ mane & tail hair woven in - they were just beautiful, with smooth insides of the woven hair. Twinkle was my first pony. No more horses on the place to contribute to current nests. The bluebirds do a great job with pine needles for constructing their nests. “Nature” is just amazing.
