Eastern Bluebird – Female and Eggs!
The first image is of the female in our bluebird nesting pair, seemingly watching us as we observe from afar. The second image, taken on March 22, 2021, captures the actual bluebird nest with five eggs.

Our Eastern Bluebird pair has already laid their first egg of the season! We do daily nest checks to make sure House Sparrows are not defiling the BB’s nests. What a surprise to find an egg this early!
The hole where these chickadees had previously nested rotted out so we built a box and attached it to the tree near the old hole. TheBlackcapped Chickadees took to it and made a beautiful nest and when they were finished with it, a Mountain Chickadee took it over and raised another brood.
