Bluebird Nest #1 of 2022

I'm super excited to report that we have our first bluebird nest of 2022 and she has laid five eggs!  Now, we wait....and wait....I'm always so impatient for #hatchday.  There's nothing sweeter than watching the eggs hatch and seeing the new baby bluebirds!  The incubation period starts after the last egg is laid and is normally 13 to 20 days. The eggs are somewhat dull when they are first laid and get shiny when they are close to hatching. So I'll keep a close eye on them. I think we should have bluebird babies the week of March 14th. Check back soon for updates!
