A pair of birds built a nest in the shelves on my front porch. I didn't notice them until yesterday when I was trying to install a screen door. One bird stayed on the nest while the other one flew up to the clothesline and watched me anxiously. You can just see the mama bird peeking out of the nest:

The silk on my corn is turning brown, which means it's time to harvest. I've only harvested one so far. It was tiny, about 5 inches long, but it was pretty well filled out with kernels, so I'm happy:

Maybe she thought she'd be safe with the decoy looking out for her.

That is the decoy, yes?

Yes, it is! The way it's set up, it does look like the duck is standing guard over the nest.
