I have some cute little house martins under my eaves, every year they come in their hundreds, I have three nests under my bedroom window, every mornign they wake me up about 3.30am, or some mornings I'm just on my way to bed and they send me off to sleep lol, I took some pictures today from my window, I created a slideshow as there were too many to post separately, but I cant seem to insert it, so please click on the link if you want to see it, i think that works.........I wrote a little poem too today, so here it is...........
Every year as summer draws nearAs spring is fading, you return hereIn your hundreds, you gather togetherA haven you seek, a nest to featherYou chose my house, made it yours tooOutside my window, to your nest you flewI can hear your chicks, safe and soundTucked in the eaves, from the perils of groundDon't worry Mrs Martin, from my window I spyOn your life and family, I don't mean to pryI.m not going to hurt you, don't fly awayMy home is yours too, your welcome to stayFor a few months, you will stay with meEnjoy your summer, then fly and be freeI hope you enjoyed being my guestAnd as the summer sun fades down in the west
