The Pattern Peddlers

new friends

my husband surprised me with two new beautiful finch females.

i named one wynema {after my great grandmother who was choctaw/chickasaw}
the other girl foshi' {meaning bird in chickasaw}

they have laid a clutch of eggs which i'm suppose to remove after a while.....but as a mother -i cannot bring myself to do it!
each time i reach my hand in for the nest she gets upset.

remember my little boys simon and francoise? photo here

both pairs are named after my french/choctaw/ chickasaw heritage.
