As We Leave the Nest

When we arrived in camp, there was a birds nest in the framework of our roof shelter.

We watched the momma bird bravely feed her single chick in the nest throughout the week - and suddenly on Wednesday the chick flew the coop so to speak and made its way around and finally flew off - much like the new folks this time in Sturgis.

Time to go home. Thanks to Bob and all for a special kind of welcome that cannot be described - only experienced.

Til the next time friends...

  1. It was a beautiful site, watching that momma bird encourage her young one to fly. Here I am sitting with a bunch of guys at the tables and when the baby took off, I wanted to go help it but the guys didn't move (so neither could I), letting nature do it's thing. Soon enough, it was hopping onto the step, fly to the table and then off to on top the truck the to the tops of the tree. A proud moment for us all.
