Mid-Summer Update

Here's an overview of our box Maxville 3.4 so far this summer. We believe three of our white bluebird eggs hatched and survived early this summer. They have now long left the nest. We had another batch of white bluebird eggs to be laid in the nest but unfortunately something (we think another bird) seems to have killed the eggs. We found the eggs outside of the nest totally smashed and in pieces. We were so disappointed!

In our other box, we had a house wren nesting there. We believe we had two eggs hatch and survive earlier this summer. Now we have five more eggs in the nest. We will keep a watch on these. It's so much fun seeing these birds in our yard and checking on the eggs!
