Backyard a sanctuary

I do love looking out at my backyard even though it's quite small. Beyond the fence is a creek and all the trees help keep it pretty private. The birds this year have been so plentiful! The little wrens are back and I love listening to their beautiful songs every day! Yesterday they were hopping up the Cottonwood tree like woodpeckers do. I never knew they would do that, and then we saw them go into a little hole in the bark. Maybe that's where they ended up putting their nest as they seemed to abandon the birdhouse.
