From Left Field

And Then There Were 4

I just checked the bluebird nest box and discovered a total of 4 eggs. When we checked yesterday there were 3, so she's been laying one per day. I laid out some more grubs that we pulled from the ground last evening while continuing to dig up an area on the back side of our house.

The Amish builders are here, but I doubt that their presence will adversely affect the blues. It will, however, impact the goldfinches who gather 12 at a time at the niger (thistle) seed feeder.
