This is the house that Jack built. What we are seeing here is only the back wall. The nest goes down and then towards the front. 8)

Jill has spent the last 12 days sleeping in the nest (as well as the entire day) as Jack has been sleeping just above. 8)
This morning, Jack has been going to the edge of the nest but Jill won`t let him in. Could it be? [-o< [-o<

Congratulations Janine!!

Just be cautious as Cubans really need their privacy.
