A second box has eggs now and we have since found this box with eggs covered in down and wood chips. This is usually a sign the hen is sitting, she covers the eggs when feeding to keep them warm.
Some of our usual visitors have made appearances, there even a Northern Shrike which I hadn't heard of but it's an uncommon bird and a predator of other small birds.
Enjoy the pics!
