Temporary Neighbors

We had some new neighbors move in for about 6 weeks.  And boy were they loud and territorial.  This mom made her nest right across the street from our driveway, right in the grass.  And laid three blue with brown spots eggs.  And then sat on those eggs for nearly 4 weeks.  And the dad walked around and protected her and the eggs.  These birds, called Treile, are very loud so whenever we backed out of our driveway or came out of our gate they would yell at us to stay away.  Sometimes the dad would even fly at us.  And then the eggs hatched and the territorial stuff got even worse, the kids couldn't go over to the park for about a week.  After a week or so the parents and the kids started roaming the circle we live in and now they have left.  It was fun to watch this whole family come about!

Also we live on Camino El Treile…they must have known this was the place to live!!!

Proud Dad


I am guessing a mom grateful to not have to sit 24/7 anymore.
