Sedge in bloom in the woodland |
A very full bluebird nest! |
There
are now 17 bluebird eggs on the trail, in three nest boxes. One box has SEVEN
white bluebird eggs. This is quite uncommon. Most bluebirds lay between three
and five blue eggs. There are three completed bluebird nests without eggs yet.
In
the woodland, a lone crow heckled a red-tailed hawk until it drove the hawk
away.
Three
boxes remain empty. One more has a small amount of nesting material inside. A
foundation of moss has been constructed by chickadees inside the last box.
