Monday Morning Bluebird Talk

Greetings from the unofficial D office in East Texas where the blueberries and bluebirds are at the peak of their season. Early this morning, I opened the nesting box of my four bluebird chicks and monitored their progress for the last time. Noting the clarity of their eyes and wing development, it looks like they are preparing to leave the nest in the next day or two. At this point it’s critical to avoid scaring them or causing them to fall from their nest before they’re ready–we don’t want any premature fledging. Enjoy.
