Bluebirds!


Just before we left for Alaska, Jon built a bluebird house for me and we put it up. I didn't really expect to get bluebirds but I hoped to get some kind of bird nesting in it. Well, when we got back I found 4 bluebird eggs in it! So for the last week or so I have been enjoying watching the parents flying around in our backyard. Today I checked again and found that the eggs have hatched and there are now some teeny tiny ugly-cute baby bluebirds! I guess Jon builds good birdhouses! If you are interested in learning more about bluebirds or how to build a bluebird house, here is a link to check out:
