"My" Say's Phoebes nested again this spring! But unfortunately they chose the old nest box under the eaves over my patio that they have never used and is beyond the reach of my ladder! They had three nest box choices! So, I have to attempt to photograph from a ladder on the sidewalk 20 ft away. They only have two chicks this year; last year they raised four.
I was out of town when nest building took place, but it appears that the process is about 3 wks ahead of last year. I will have to count backward when they actually fledge in the next few days to know about when the eggs hatched, but probably it was when I was at the CFO convention! Also, with only two nestlings to feed, the parents are far more relaxed this year. A running photographic diary is on my website at http://www.kayniyo.com/birds_flycatcher.htm. Kay Kayleen A.
