All But One Bluebird Eggs Now Hatched

South Side

Here the first box along the trail, 2, has all five eggs hatched. The Nestlings have not opened their eyes yet. But they are quite alert and active.





Coming along in Box 7, a fourth egg was laid and three hatched. They were wiggling a little. The fourth should hatch today after I left.





Box 9 had the nestlings last time and now the eyes are open. If I don't keep track, they can easily fledge in a week.



Box 14 had 5 swallow eggs and they have now hathed, probably the first swallows.


Box 13 had some bluebirds hanging around it but there were no eggs.


North Side

The one Bluebird nest has four hatched chicks. Not very old yet.
