What a nice site.
I saw the bluebird page. Just a few words OT to say that there are many
bird houses for bluebirds along roads here in the countryside in Shenandoah,
VA. We learned that if a nest is not cleaned out thoroughly that they will
not raise a new family in it. We keep track (but not disturb them) of when
the birds leave after the first family leaves; my husband cleans thoroughly
the nest, and before long another family will come; one or two times, we had
three new families in one season. I don't know if you know this or not and
if it is one of the reasons. (Another reason my be that another bird --
forget the name -- that is arrogant -- will keep the bluebirds from settling
in. We had that happen once. There are several situations that cause this
to happen, but I can't remember them. There are remedies.
