should be National Geographic Spotting Of the Week. Lovely spot.
Yes, it's about 100' from an interurban lake.
is this near a pond?
Two last photos of the nest and site as of April 23.
Thank you KathleenMcEachern! These were spotted at Burnaby Lake Park, if the weather clears today, I'll go back to see how their doing :).
Great series! I have tried to find a Bushtit actually making its nest but never have! Lucky you!
Thank you Maria.
Really wonderful series!
Thank you Jemma and Jared.
This nest sort of stood out as there aren't too many leaves on our trees yet. Now, saying that, not one person who walked or jogged by could see what I was looking at :). If I hadn't of seen a flicker out of the corner of my eye, I would have missed it as well.
a bush tit's nest is an architectural marvel
I had found a nest long ago and we had a big discussion on it.

Awesome spotting Glen, love how you captured it in its nest. Brilliant!
Amazing spotting Glen. To actually see them making a nest is a real treat.
