A sparkle that caught my eye

It's that time of year when the leaves need raked and the tree needs trimmed. Unfortunately it also means that it will cause many animals and insects to lose their homes. There was an abandoned birds nest on a limb that was cut that caught my attention from across the yard. The sun beat down just so that a red ribbon scrap sparkled brightly catching my eye. The nest was full of lawn debris as well as tiny treasures of trash that it found in my yard. It even gathered pine straw with clumps of tree sap from my neighbors yard that held it together like glue. I decided to leave a small strand of shiny blue ribbon on the ground below that tree in hopes that I will see a new nest that it will be in that sparkles and catches my eye.
