Sunday August 10, 2008 "The Yacolt Quakers Play at Home"

It was a warm 80-degree day as Glenn Welker walked into his backyard to catch a few photos of his Quakers at play. As Glenn approached, he immediately observed two Quakers flying over as if to give him permission to enter their sacred ground.
All photos were taken by both homeowners Lisa & Glenn Welker.

As Glenn entered his backyard, two Quakers flew overhead and announced that they were sentries of this territory.

All photos were taken by both homeowners Lisa & Glenn Welker.

A pair of Quakers was standing guard over their new found home as other Quakers flew by.

Three Quakers where seen having a snack on the feeders in the Welkers backyard.



As other Quakers flew around and some ate lunch. One pair seemed to be guarding the nest platform. The Question is; are there more babies inside?As the two Quakers above take watch over their domain, there joined by a third Quaker announcing "Intruder Alert below!”
All photos were taken by both homeowners Lisa & Glenn Welker.

Three wild birds are spotted on the Quakers Nest !

The three Quakers go into action and kick the unwanted snoopers off their nest.

Two Quakers flew down immediately to reclaim their home.
Once the Quakers cleared their nest platform, they flew back to their sentry post and seemed to call their family.
All of a sudden a third Quaker appeared.
Then a forth Quaker appeared. Then the complete family of seven arrived as if to say hello to Glenn & to announce that they are in charge of their newfound home.
At this time we have a count of ten Quakers.
All photos were taken by both homeowners Lisa & Glenn Welker.
