| Bird nest about 4" diameter with jelly bean sized eggs, blue with brown spots |
On my post of May 9th I had a picture of a nest, about 6 inches in diameter, with blue eggs and brown spots, the eggs were about an inch long. It turned out to be a mockingbird nest. Here is a different nest with eggs that I found in our cherry tree, it's much smaller, about 4 inches in diameter, and the eggs are about the size of jelly beans, but they are also blue with brown spots. I have seen the mommy bird, she is small like a sparrow, maybe smaller, and colored like a sparrow, but has a dark red stripe on her head. I tried to find her on the internet, but have had no success. Anyone know what she is?
