Attached: 2 images What a wonderful day! We just watched an #EasternBluebird couple discover the box we put up in the backyard. Now @Jillianmarisa and I are narrating for them. It’s like house hunters bird edition back here. 🥰 Will they pick the new-build roomy mansion in the bad part of town? Stay tuned! #househunters #naturalist #backyardbirding #naturalist #birding
