Neighborhood Sighting: Handmade nest planter

One of the things that makes me happy is stumbling across a neat little piece of handmade design when I'm not expecting it. This morning on my morning walk with the dog in our new neighborhood, I spotted this little piece sitting humbly on the edge of someone's yard:


So cute! Instantly I had visions of this person I'd never met patiently weaving together all these sticks they had gathered from various places. Perhaps they saw a bird building its own nest, and they were inspired to observe its methods, as if to take a lesson from a skilled master. Something to smile about as I "nest" in our new apartment!
