Nesting Mother

Our bird, Netty, has been a busy little bird. She's been laying many, many eggs. Three eggs have not been popped yet. Netty actually sits on them every now and then. I don't think they are fertilized. Even if they are, she is sporadic with how much she sits on them. Here are some pictures of her.

Netty looking up at me. "What are you doing?" Notice her porkchop cheeks. :) Posted by Picasa
