We’ve named the little sparrows Beatrice and Feather Butt. Well, Nathan pretty much named them. Yesterday morning we saw Beatrice starting to pay more attention than normal to the nest, so we went out and took a look. Sure enough, two little eggs had appeared!
So now she’s spending these ninety-plus-degree days sitting on her little eggies, poor thing. She looks hot today. 
I had to take this shot from pretty far away indoors yesterday, since she flies away if we get too close. Feather Butt used to sit up on the fire station watching over her, but he seems content that everything is going alright now and doesn’t seem to be around most of the time. Slowly but surely, i think they’re getting used to the fact that they’ve built their abode very close to ours.

How cute is that? I wish I had entertaining creatures outside my window. I can’t wait till those eggies hatch!

Did you put them out a bird bath? (Just a bowl would work, I’m sure.) You could put ice in it!
