Above: Box 1 - House wrens - 0 eggs

Above: Box 2 - House wrens - 0 eggs

Above: Box 3 - Mountain Bluebirds - 3 eggs (blue)

Above: Box 4 - House wrens - 0 eggs

Above: Box 5 - Mountain Chickadees - 0 eggs. (Update: Later in the day, I realized that the Mountain Chickadees were hiding their eggs under a layer of fluff. I'm not sure if this is for warmth or predaction, but Jen and I poked around and found four white eggs.)

Above: Box 5 - Mountain Chickadees - 4 eggs (white). Jen and I poked around and found some eggs afer all. Clever birds.

Above: Box 6 - House wrens - 2 eggs (pink)

Above: Box 562 - Mountain Chickadees - 5 eggs (white). At first, I didn't see any eggs, but I got suspicious that neither of the Mountain Chickadee nests had any eggs yet. So, I poked around a bit and found five white eggs hidden in the nest.

Above: Box 7 - Tree swallows - no nest yet.

Above: Box 8 - Western Bluebirds - 2 eggs (blue)

Above: Box 8 - Female Western Bluebird sitting on 2 eggs. Initially, I thought that she was laying another egg. But I don't beleive she laid an egg today. She could possibly be incubating a clutch of only 2 eggs, but this would be an unusually small clutch size.
