Another Nest Attempt?

Will you clean out the box and try again? Last year I had a nest box that housed 4 clutches.

I only see two babys in the nest.
An odd egg

My pair of bluebirds have 3 eggs in the nest but I am concerned about one of the eggs thats different, one is blue with specks and two are solid blue. Do I need to remove the odd one to prevent possible cow bird invasion?

heat

It seems that the baby bluebirds are moving inside of the nestbox to the less hot side. This early AM, they are mostly on the west side away from the sun. This nestbox has roof shading and south and west sidewall shading (shields) to lessen the heat buildup during the afternoon. And 2 top slots, 1/2" x 4", for ventilation.

What happened to the sixth chick?

It appears as if the sixth chick did'nt make it. Do you think the chick was removed by the parents? How did it die?

A tip of the hat to Bill Freels of Paducah, KY, a prime mover whose energy, vision, and resources have made the Heath bluebird box a reality. Freels is a man of few words. His actions in this and other projects have made a solid contribution to our community. Thank you, Bill.

I can see only three eggs right now, but maybe a nestling is covering one. Nice to see all is well so far!!
6 eggs now!

Looks like a six egg clutch. Hope all of them will hatch safely.

Thunderstorms knocked out the computer 4-29-06 and during the weekend the nestbox pictures were not being shown. Yesterday, Lisa Alvey, at Heath Elementary School, spent a great amount of time getting the computer to working so the pictires could be transmitted to Cornell. "Thanks to Lisa"
