Not Impressed?
It was at quite a distance, so the images are not great, but I was privy to a Tree Swallow breeding. The nest box is nearby and I first saw the beginning of a nest about 5 days ago.I’m not sure if the female… Continue Reading “Not Impressed?”
Gotta Love Me a Robin’s Nest
This one has been built in a pear tree in our little orchard, in the same place as last year. I remember being a little kid as my mother reached up and held a hand mirror over a Robin’s nest that was built on… Continue Reading “Gotta Love Me a Robin’s Nest”
Hopeful
This lovely Eastern Bluebird pair has been stopping by to explore the nest box that is not far from my office window. I’m hopeful that they will make a final decision soon, so that I can have an intimate view of their progress from… Continue Reading “Hopeful”
The Eyes Have It

The Rusty Blackbird

AllAboutBirds.org website states: “Rusty Blackbird is one of North America’s most rapidly declining… Continue Reading “The Rusty Blackbird”
Blackbird
Because I belong to several groups in social media for folks who enjoy “birding” I have come to recognize an interesting phenomenon. I’m not going to say that it’s a fact, since I only have my own experience to support my opinion. However, my… Continue Reading “Blackbird”
Building a Colony
Purple Martins are one of the few social species of birds that prefer to nest in very close proximity with others of their own kind. In contrast, for example, the Eastern Bluebirds are said to require at least 300 feet of distance between nesting… Continue Reading “Building a Colony”
