Surprise

I was cleaning our little finches cage today just as I do every day but to my surprise I found a single egg in the little basket nest. The people told me they had eggs before but no babies.They said the birds would line it with fibers etc. I never supplied them with anything to line the nest. Both of them frequently go in it and sit for awhile but there was never any indication that they would be starting a family. I did put some soft batting in the nest and gently returned the egg inside.
I have set my settings to no comments...just wanted to share. Hopefully by next week I will be back posting and commenting as normal.
