It looks like things are just right for the Eastern Bluebirds this year. :) They have brooded THREE Clutches of five (5). Brand new babies today. :woot

Carol ours have been amazing this year... they have some favorite birdhouses they won't share. I love watching them come and go all day. AND how they chase the mocking birds away. :)

Gorgeously taken pictures by the way! Absolutely wonderful!

What a wonderful thing! I am always so pleased if a bird decides to make their home in my yard...I never see bluebirds- what an incredible sight! Those pictures are gorgeous! I know we just got a new pic of the week- but we need one of those for next week!!

Thanks for all the complements. :cool: It is going to my head! I love those birds. I think they are helping keep the nasty hornworms in some control. :D Now to teach them to chase away the bunnies.

They are so pretty! We just don't see them very much around here. Thank you so much for sharing. Such a pure blue those eggs are!
