I noticed last week that the Bluebird box was being readied for use. So keeping an eye on it, with Russell’s help, I was able to see that it was being filled and arranged for a nest.

This morning there are two blue eggs in the nest. I could be a day off of understanding the laying pattern since I checked yesterday late morning, but not after, and not the day before that at all. So I’ll be checking the box later this afternoon.

I am hopeful for the Bluebirds, but a bit wondering at their sense. Will they be able to raise up two or three or four babies and ready them for winter?

They tried twice to nest this year, with both failing, so this is a third attempt. I admire their spirit!
