Observation details
Major drama with the chickadees- they built a moss nest and lined it with soft materials.no eggs were laid and then bluebirds began checking out the box. The chickadees would not enter the box or defend it, but were always close by fussing. This went on about 4 days. Then today a male bluebird entered and removed some of the nesting material. It’s mostly been 2 male bluebirds and one female. I feel certain they are visiting from an occupied nest near by and perhaps 1st year for them to nest as one male is not dark blue but slightly paler.
