First Flowers - RIP

Here is a picture of my first basket of hanging flowers during better times.  My parents brought them during their first visit to the new FFS back in mid-May 2009.  Though I watered them and Charlie (my Majestic Palm named after Drew Barrymore's character in Firestarter) everyday, it eventually succumbed to death.  As I ascended the step ladder last night to try to salvage them, I discovered the cause of death.  Inside the basket, a bird had had torn up the soil and used the flower vines to help build a nest.  Inside the nest were the remnants of 3 eggs.   Though my first flowers are now gone, hopefully 3 fledglings are still flying.
