Home Stretch for the Summer, I Hope



There are still a few boxes to follow. One box just hatched two and the third egg will hatch today. I will be going to that box in a week and then a week later, with minimal work to check it. However, it is in very tall grass.

South Side

The nest box with with three fledged all three. There is one more box with 4 blue eggs. In a week I cans say if anything came of it.

Wrens have taken over several boxes, but only one has a nest.


With the sticks out the hole, it's a good guess it is just a male doing his duty, filling every cavity with sticks.

North Side

The four in Box 11 are ready to leave any day, fully feathered.

Box 18 had three eggs and two now hatched.



A little movie: 


A day later all three had hatched. The active one has his head and bill over the third one. The parents had collected the egg shells.
