Some bluebirds hatched

I was not really spending time here, on my way back from birding. I checked a few tree swallow nests, ones I had seen with swallows 1-2 weeks back. Most were empty. I am not cleaning these till much later, but you can tell the history easily.

The nest is a swallow nest, because it's lined with feathers, like goose feathers. There is poop in there, so they nested. No dead chicks and no unhatched eggs.

The bluebirds second clutches are coming along. These four on the North side, Box 16, hatched 1-2 days ago.

I got a little video, but none of the neck sticking up kind when they think I am the parent.
