After surviving major construction right next to us, my shrubs
and trees have grown up enough, that the yard is taking on its
fuzzy look again and seems to be much more bird friendly.

BC Chickadees have successfully nested and from the wheezy chirps
from the box, we should see lift off in the next few days.

Stellar's Jays were lurking in my trees (very quiet for almost
two weeks), then vigorously collected nesting material. Don't know
where they're nesting but it's nearby. The Mrs took a long
bath in the birdbath last night, and then ate evil bugs in the garden.

Bushtits are very busy and I'm looking for a nest, because they've
nested in the fir trees before.
