Found this nest in a hanging flower basket on my deck. Can’t believe how many eggs are in this little nest and two different kinds.

    The bluish eggs are House finch eggs and the white ones with brown speckles are Brown-headed Cowbird eggs. Removing cowbird eggs is illegal so do NOT remove them.

    Wow! Cowbirds lay 1-3 eggs in a nest!(correct me if I am wrong)
