During the night the wind and rain bent the branches on the rose bush, that our 
cardinal was nesting in,on a 45% angle.  2 of the 3 eggs were on the ground and 
the female was frantically flying in and out of the bush.   The situation 
became so bad, that the male even left his buddies at the feeder, and came to 
take a look at the tilted nest.

I tied the rose branch up with some string and got the nest back up and level.  
Then I placed the eggs back into the nest with the hope that mamma would return.

We got lucky and now the female is back on her eggs.
