Last summer, at the end of June, a pair of juncos nested in a hanging begonia planter on my front porch - which is covered. They successfully fledged 3 young from 3 eggs. Nice location for them, about 5' off the ground, in the cover of the plant, under the cover of the overhang.
We don't usually put our hanging plants out at 8500' until June. Well, it appears the juncos are waiting this year, as they found last year's Xmas wreath against the front porch wall even more covered. And they don't have to deal with my wife watering their nest every day! The nest appears to be more than 50% complete. About 4' off the ground/porch level. fyi Jeff J Jones ( <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]) Teller County - 8500' - Montane Woodlands --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Join us at the 2009 Convention in Alamosa: http://cfo-link.org/convention/index.php You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
