Time for some adorableness. 🥰 😘
This is a piping plover on the beach standing guard over her two chicks. They are TINY.

Edit: I am informed by @Avloky that she is being a "Mombrella," shielding her babies from the sun and other weather. A perfect description! 🏖️
This is what happens when you are lucky enough to have a beautiful pigeon nest in one of your big flowerpots. The photographer, Ariel Whitsund, calls it "A Golden Squab Has Arrived."
Invasive house sparrows are terrible! So prolific that our poor native bluebirds really struggle. It takes gobs of time and active management to ensure a bluebird couple can establish a nest, but even then the threat isn't over. They need your help!
I use two-hole boxes. With the extra hole they can generally defend the nest. I get mine from JackQuest on Etsy. Well priced, masterfully built.
Not an AD, but he is part of my naturalist chapter. I don't get anything. I just like supporting a friend, cool dude, and bird advocate who does great work.

It is hard to believe it’s already nesting season here in the #KC ‘burbs. This fella and his pretty lady are interested in our back box. They better hurry up, because the dumb house sparrows are aggressive this season, already!
Last year it took many nest evictions and a few sparrow traps before a native couple settled in.
