last week or so, i was just telling becca how happy i was that the bird came back, to make a new nest^^ then yesterday, my younger brother told me the eggs dissapeared.....!? o.o he even told me that the mother bird must have took it away to it's new nest....
i obviously didn't believe him. how is it possible that a bird as big as my palm( i don't have giant hands btw ) with it's tiny legs(?) possibly transport it to another place? its like asking u to carry a stone as big as a chair using ur....erm....mouth? without any help. even if ur teeth r strong enough, how r u gonna carry it?
anyway, it's impossible.
so, after dinner, i quietly made my way to it's nest. the bird wasn't there. n to mention it, i dont think i heard any birds chirping lately nor have i seen the mother bird flying home to it's nest lately. this wasn't good, cause according to my my past experince, the mother bird will usually fly back to sleep at around 5pm. latest by 6pm. it's around 9pm now.
i wasn't tall enough to take a good view of the nest, so i got a chair n managed my way up. suddenly, sth moved around in between the flower pots. i didn't really bother. so i peeked in to the nest.
the eggs weren't there.
i couldn't believe my eyes, i mean, how could it just disappear? we have seen a few casses where the mother bird flies off leaving the nest n eggs behind, but never seen before a case where the eggs dissapear totally. i even got myself a torch but couldn't find any trace of broken egg shells. it disappeared totally.
i was kinda freaked out because the first possibility that came to my mind was that somehow, an animal manage to get it's way up to eat the 2 eggs. and the first animal that came to my mind that does this kind of thing, is a snake....
something moved in between the flower pots again. immediately, i got myself off the chair, and ran into the house. top speed.
i hope i dont see any snakes ><
