Mama Blue

Last year we had a family of Eastern Blue Birds that took up residency in this awesome little house that hubby made. It was so adorable to watch momma and pappa tending to them and when it was time for them to fly away, oh my I had a blast watching them!! Momma was in a tree and Pappa was in the bush and I just know that they were prompting them with all of their little tweets. I know because I could hear them! Then a few months later another family came or it could of been the same family. I watched them daily- building, sitting, feeding and I also watched a big hawk eyeing them! I worried about them so! One day I came home and the door to their little house was open!! GASP!!! There was no way that they could of done that!! I know that mean old hawk got them!! It took many months for "new tenants" to move in but they did. Hubby put a new latch on so that "mean old hawk" can't get them. I hope this means we are back in business and will have many more blue bird families.
