Busy with a zillion other projects around our 8 acres and homestead, we had neglected a small nest box mounted on our electric pole years ago. It had not been used in years. This spring we cleaned it out and re-mounted it. It did not take long for a House Wren pair to claim it for their own. Not far from this family, a Northern Cardinal raised three nestlings successfully.
Wow, that’s a lot of babies! And I’m not surprised that with 8 acres you’re busy!
