Two Adult males arrived April 27, since than more males & 2 young females, all have been up feeding afternoons, including today, seem in fare shape, no losses.
Friday sounds warmer, watching for some SY males !?
Offering pine straw, first time, instead of wheat, doubled pre-nest as recent cold front moved in & plugged vents!
No feedback on pre-nest, as nesting hasn't begun here.
Wood housing, has kept birds safe n comfortable so far.
