Looks like I might get my tool belt back sooner than I thought. The Bewick’s wren babies are pretty feathered out. You can see the characteristic eye stripe #birds #birding
@CavedaleRhones what a cozy nest!
@Ottermarie I know! Mom flits in and out like a ghost while I am working in the shop, occasionally buzzing at me if I annoy her. Super cute! Looking forward to getting my tool belt back though 🤣
@CavedaleRhones 5 babies is a lot for that little space. Mom will surely be back next year.
@CavedaleRhones @Ottermarie
How many clutches per year?
@LeelaTorres @CavedaleRhones Cornell labs says 1 to 3 broods per year
@LeelaTorres @Ottermarie I think 2. There was a nest earlier this year in the milk crate full of pvc parts.
