Eggs

Three bworn-splotched light blu eggs in a nest made of (mostly) grasses, seen from above. (Red-winged blackbird eggs)
Egg in Vinegar
Hummingbird and eggs carved by Bob Spear, and real nest.
A Veery stands adjacent to a nest with pale blue eggs. The life-like woodcarving is a small mostly brown bird carved and painted by Bob Spear, as are the eggs. The nest is real. The green fern behind the bird is made of painted metal, but also looks real.
Translucent Egg
American Woodcock and eggs, carved by Bob Spear, 1981.
