For the Birds

Back on February 28, I posted about the wrens trying to nest in my gas grill.  I’m happy to report that after a few days of leaving the lid up, the birds gave up and went elsewhere.

Now, I’m afraid I know where they went.

They, or some of their kind, have built a nest on the top of our propane tank! 

The delivery guy managed to give us 100 gallons of propane this morning without disturbing the nest.  That’s great, but the bad news is that the nest is covering the meter that tells how much is in the tank.

The low this morning was 68° F, so the birds should be able to hatch and raise their chicks before we need any more gas delivered.
