    Wedded Bliss?

    This looks like the typical couple. She nags while he nonchalantly tries to walk away.

    I took a short hike on a nature trail, at an area state park. There is a blubird nesting box right next to the trail. Evidentally, they have babies because they clearly didn't like me anywhere near. At least they gave me a few photo ops.

    Looks good Mike! Of my 5 nest boxes, only one has bluebirds in it. They young ones were pretty big last week when I checked on them. They may be out of the house by now. I will have to check this week.

    Very nice Mike, that last one is superb. I never seem to be able to get great bird pics like this. I guess I really need to work on my stalking techniques.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Dress your boys in camouflage and make them sit quietly in the bushes.
