Détails de l'observation
This is the male. He flushed from his day roost in a neighbor's spruce when a scrub-jay found him at around 5:30 p.m., and made a dash for the closest nest box 25 yards away in my yard and already occupied by his mate where she is incubating. After the entourage of mobbing birds (chickadees, a flicker, a nuthatch, House Finches and juncos) subsided, he appeared in the entrance hole and remained there for 2 1/2 hours until he emerged for the night at 7:53 p.m. It's unusual for him to stay in the box with her unless he's seeking a safe haven from jays or magpies.He appeared to make a food delivery 15 minutes or so after he left the box, although I couldn't make out any unusual shape around his beak in his silhouette. He exchanged soft vocalizations with the female inside the box. She didn't emerge in the hour after dusk.
