This past week has felt like an overdue reunion of long-lost friends. Our bluebirds moved back into the nesting box outside our dining room window. Yesterday, I watched as they defended their nest from a starling. A part of me wanted to go help them, but as much as they may look like helpless eye-candy, they both very aggressively and successfully defended their nest. I cheered as the starling left, and now I know they clearly don’t need any help from me!
Magical!
Love the detail about the bird using sheep wool for the nest. How wonderful you have so many spring "residents" and you know to LOOK for them!
