I will not write about the bluebirds in my next post. I’ll share something with a little more depth, more substance. Less obsession.
Promise.
Until then, though, we won’t even consider this a real post. It’s just a bonus weekend update. Because there’s news surrounding the bluebirds’ consideration of the new nest box, and I just have to share.
He’s all about it.
He’s been around a lot. Flying in. Flying out. Gazing with interest from the pretty scrollwork bench not four feet away.

Who can blame her? It’s been a long Spring, what with two failed nests and the loss of five precious babies, their eyes not even opened yet.

There has been a lot of investigation. Some discussion.
She likes the open concept. He’s sold on the million dollar view.
And a whole lot of excitement on the part of Big Daddy.
I love him.

Just beautiful!
I can hardly take my eyes off them. As you know, it’s so fascinating to watch the interaction between the male and female. There is so much going on!
Such a lovely couple! Prayers that the Snakes and the Hawks, and others, may be transferred to another location to make a living – at least for the next few months. Thanks for the post!
I agree, Joretta and thank you for the prayers. I’ve seen the hawk sit on top of the new box twice. So there’s a NEW worry!
Your posts about the birds make me happy…please don’t stop!
Oh, thank you, Betsy! They are so fascinating–I am happy they make you happy!
Cathy I want at least 1 obsessed post about the newly purchased home weekly. She is tired and fussy, he ever the optimist. I think they love you too.
Thank you, Rosie. I believe you and I are kindred spirits!
