Tree Swallow Young!
The other day, I saw both the male and female Tree Swallows going in and out of the box. Because the weather wasn’t really nice, I waited until today to check the box. All four eggs have hatched!
MCHM Robins
This was fun experience, since the nest is six feet and below my window, I was able to observe the nest with some regularity. I took over 2,000 photos over the whole month, with my telephoto lense. This way i did not disturb the family by walking close to the site.
Black-Chinned Hummingbirds
During the summer of 2014 my children and I observed a Black-chinned hummingbird making a nest. We watched while she made the nest, sat on the eggs, hatched, fed them and then witnessed them flying away.
