As the birds start to migrate back they will be making nests. In fact they are making nests in our gutters on the house. We have gutter guards but there's a little opening by the downspouts that they are flying into. Bob plans on cleaning them out and figuring something no stop them from getting in. This bird house is at Black Hills and Mr. Blue seems to have taken claim to it. He wasn't letting anyone come near it. They told me what type he was Saturday but I have forgotten and don't seem to see it in my bird guide. I do know he is a month early arriving, guess it was the mild winter. Saw a new yellow bird at my feed today when I got home so hope a get his picture soon.
What a great photo. Love capturing them with mouth wide open. Nicely done, Leslie. Love your story about the birds. Our neighbor has trees across his fence behind us so they nest in there for the most. Concerned about them as we will be getting Winter weather starting at 2am here in No CA for the week.
