Until this year I have only had at the most 1 RB Grosbeak at a time which tended to stay a day or 2 at the most. I now have 6 male and 3 female grosbeaks! Since I am not that far from Glen Crippen I wonder if there isn't a reason for this. The screech owl continues to sit in the opening for a "breath of fresh air" while the young ones make little sounds inside. I have 1 bluebird nest with eggs, 2 Carolina Wren nests with eggs, and of course a Robin nest with eggs. My neighbor has a Tree Swallow checking out one of her bluebird boxes.
