Look what I found when I was deadheading the roses. A tiny nest, delicately balanced in the middle of a large rose bush. Beautifully woven. No owner in residence. No known eggs or chicks. Too small to belong to a blackbird, could it belong to one of the finch family?

I’m used to finding sparrow nests hidden amongst the aloe vera plants, but this one is a mystery! Aren’t birds ingenious? SD
