How cool, I love these little birds. We have them too however I have never looked for their nests. We have them both around our house and at the park near our house.

What is this wierd egg with the others?

I've heard the stories about the cow bird monitoring the nests where she has laid eggs, and I don't believe it really happens. Cowbirds used to follow the buffalo herds and could not stick around to raise their young. So they would lay their eggs in the nests of others and then might stick around or might move on, based on what the buffalo did. Yellow Warblers will build a nest on top of their original nest if a cowbird laid an egg in it. Naturalists have seen up to 10 yellow warbler nests built one on top of the other to avoid incubating the cowbird eggs that were laid in each additional nest. No harm was done to any of the warblers eggs and no retaliation was reported. Many birds naturally recognize the foreign egg and remove it from the nest, without any reprisal.

Thank you Rachel. I'm sure she won't stay here long - just passing through and taking advantage of the feast - the field next to us has sweet corn and sunflowers, the birds love it.

Gracious! Amazing photos; but how did you get high enough to see in one of their nests?

Thank you all!
They nest low, around 4 to 5 feet off the ground, this was about 4 foot, a small poplar tree which I jobbed down a couple of years ago to that level and left a perfect fork for them to build a nest on.
