Waiting on an egg or eight

We have 2 birdhouses in the yard that host 
the same family of birds every year.  
The little bluebird family is eagerly awaiting the arrival of
eight wee babies.  I never knew that birds laid so many eggs.
The eggs are so tiny and delicate and 
the most wonderful shade of blue.

Yep! :) We have a slew of baby blue birds. I'll have to get a picture when they are bigger.
