Bluebird Blog 2018 ~ Egg Watch Begins

I have been writing about the bluebirds in my backyard. The last blog entry talks about the five eggs laid Bluebird Blog Update. Tomorrow will be day 12 since the last egg was laid. That means egg watch begins. And you know what that means, right? The eggs will start hatching and we will see baby bluebirds soon! A very exciting time in the garden. The Mom and Dad bluebird are in the tulip poplar tree nearby. They are on high alert, in and out of the box rolling the eggs. They know it is almost time. Amazing isn’t it?

I will get as many photos as the bluebirds will allow. I try not to bother them too much. But they are tolerant if I am only in the house a few seconds. They start flying right over my head if I stay too long. Of course I will keep you posted. The watch begins on day 12 (Thursday), but it could be day 13 or 14. When the eggs are ready, it will happen. I hope to be there with my camera to catch the miracles.

  1. I have to admit, at first I thought this was a tech post and you were using a new watch shaped like an egg.

    Then I realized it was a bluebird post – fingers crossed!!!
