This summer we have been gifted with a pair of tree swallows who have taken up nesting in our new Blue Bird box. Every day there is drama of some sort with 2-4 other swallows who seem to be vying for the house or the "girl". There are 2 little eggs inside the nest which was made with long pieces from last year's Siberian Iris leaves and a lot of interesting feathers, some geese, some doves, 1 definitely is a downy woodpecker's. They sing a merry little song and do not mind me around them in the yard, but do not like anyone near the nest box, of course.
