An update on the magpies' nest in late April.
The sparrows have taken over, but for long periods of time 'nothing' happens.
We start wondering, but then the sparrows show up again. This has happened some times now.
The magpies have built their nest of the year about 50 meters away from the garden.
In the beginning, they completely stayed away from the garden.
Now we see them regularly.
Even with the scaffolding on our house.
They are still quite shy, but we think we will get closer to them through the summer.
Getting to know these birds is a process, every time.
They start out being instinctively very wary of people (and us).
Then we have to behave well and the birds must grow trust to us.
A little by little.
This takes time and patience.
But maybe at the end of this summer we will know each other better.
