A Warm Welcome Greetings to My Most Adorable Neighbours

Just as I was sipping on my cup of morning tea, a bunch of twigs came flying by, on my bed. It was windy and I looked up to see.....

There I saw two little birds that looked like sparrows with twigs in their cute tiny beaks, hopping and skipping all around the top most array of the horizontal collapsable glass window panes . To my surprise, I found a beautiful nest that they were still working on to perfection. Without making distracting movements, I slowly crept below on my bed, to take a closer look at the nest and what the little birds were upto.................

I was astonished and amazed at their work of art and the fact that all of the thin but strong twigs were of one particular kind. All of them bore furry tips of light greens with a strong dark brown midrib. By then they had already made the basic foundation with those twigs. I kept watching at the industrious effort they were putting in and they co-ordinated amongst themselves in a typical pattern as they were at it. One would fly away and get a twig every half a minute from somewhere outside, and the other would push the twigs with it's beak intently, while it would perch itself inside the round bowl shaped nest, the opening of which faced outside overlooking the canopy of trees. I guess they chose their spot keeping the beautiful vanatage point in their minds. They knew what division of labour means. They knew what they were doing. After a point of time, I saw them swapping duties and went on building and designing their home all day long. This kept on happening until mid day, and then they were not to be seen for quite sometime............ I believe they flew back to their previous home for lunch and rest.... Just about a couple of hours before the dawn would set in, they appeared and began with the rest of the arrangements of their new home......... In the evening, I waited thinking that they have finished building their nest and hoped that they would arrive to begin their new life in this beautiful nest that they had built all day long....... I waited and waited........ but they were not be seen............

Next morning, even before I woke up they had already started setting up their new place by flying in more twigs and arranging them per their requirements......... gradually I saw the face of the nest facing towards inside the bedroom closing in, as the mesh of the twigs grew thicker and thicker. Thus the wall was built firm and nice, keeping temselves from the prying eyes of the onlookers...... All along my bed towards the window had such twigs strewn across which I believe could not hold itself from the sea breeze, but they did not stop at that..... They were resolute and seemed happy and gay while they rested in between on the window panes chirping away to glory.... A breather they needed surely !

It's been about 3 days now that I see them busy weaving the nest.....

I am still waiting for the time when they would completely settle in their new home and then we would have the most adorable neighbours to ourselves. I plan to feed them with grains and befriend them in the long run, keep them in good humor, happy and take them into my confidence....

But what makes me extremely happy is the fact that they chose the window of my bedroom, despite seeing us living and moving in and out as we would be busy in our daily chores....... I assume I have already earned the faith, trust and confidence of my would-be neighbours.... and hence the rest will fall into place.......

I welcome the beautiful couple to their love nest... my earnest prayers, love and best wishes to them to mark their house warming. May they live happily forever.... ... as I take a trip to my Flight Of Fantasy along with them...............( chirp! chirp! chirp! )
