More on the nestlings, 4 nests

It's been only a few days but checked the four nests again. Only one new egg and the nestlings still have eyes closed.

South Side


Box 2  has the same four eggs. Put some tape on the pole to stop ants, as we had a problem there last May.

Box 7 still has just 3 eggs.  The male of that pair was in a nearby locust tree


Box 9 not far away, the closest I have had two pairs of bluebirds. It has the nestlings inside and a female standing by, She was not currently feeding as they usually nap at noon.


Inside, five nestlings in a pile, the same two begging I presume.



Trying to add a video clip here:



North side


Here is the pair of bluebirds. The nest has 4 eggs.




Swallows have a nest next door.
