A joyful sound

The sound of bluebirds approaching the yard is a joyful sound indeed.

 

Lady and Mr. B seem to be getting serious about checking out the nest box. They are going in it and out of it often throughout the day. One will perch on top while the other one goes inside. The one that goes in, flies out to oak three and the other one goes inside. In addition, they are visiting the yard together on occasion without the other two males. This activity has me checking the nest cam daily for a piece of moss or a stick.

 

Former bluebirds always placed a single item in the box and checked on it several times daily before building a nest. That's when you know they are really serious. Once they are satisfied that the box is safe, nest building happens rather quickly.

 

May I say thank you in advance for the faves, comments and visits. I have somehow injured my wrist and typing is difficult at the moment.

 

I hope your day is filled with beautiful sights, sounds and true joy. Happy snapping.
