Birdhouse Not for Rent

For years our bird house has been spurned by all birds. We'd only found spiders where we wanted a little family!

We are thrilled to have renters!

Tommy Titmouse & Tammi are diligently caring for their brood. We found the little ones chirping on 4/15. Mom and dad have been feeding the often running from the front yard feeders to the back yard nest.

Here's their specs:
Tufted Titmouse
Clutch: 3-9 Eggs
Incubation: 12-14 Days
Nestling: 15-16 Days (We found them on the 15th and 12 days would be the 27th today!!)

Playing outside today the girls said the birds have gone. Oh, I do hope not yet!! Maple has given the birds and especially hard time barking endless as they come and go. Tommy has played hide and seek leading Maple around and around the tree before he sneaks into the house!

I hope they all escape Maple and we need to keep our watch up! Birding!! Grace! ss
