Nesting continues through July

Bluebirds

The nests on the South side have one with 4 eggs, one with hatched young and one with 4 eggs. I saw the female on that nest so I did not scare her off the eggs, merely closing the door.


These are the hatched young, the fifth egg will have hatched today.

So from these we have possibly 13 young coming. I have given up on the two egg nest on the North side (Box 16).

Wrens
The wrens are active. On the North side I found this stack of sticks. They have a purpose, to fill up space. There was some indication of nesting material at the very top, but it is hard to move that stack and not have their nest fall off.


House Sparrows

Two boxes have house sparrows. This one very near the nature center building has almost grown young:
