18 Jul 10 - Blue Bird Flight Training

 
We have over the past several years tried to get Blue Birds on our property and in our Blue Bird houses. Last year we were sucessful but we never saw any baby blue birds. This year we have 4 new baby blue birds (2 male 2 female). Today appeared to be "Flight Training Day".

We starting seeing them very early this morning out of the blue bird house. We think one flew into our large dinning room window but luckly survived. Later we spotted one on the ground outside our kitchen window with the mother sitting in the tree watching over him.

Then this afternoon, Vino (our cat) spotted one male sitting on the outside window ledge of our family room. Then we spotted one male in the tree and two females on the rocks. Mom and Dad would come an go and the little ones would fly with them.

It has been a really exciting day and we are very happy to been able to view "Blue Bird Flight Training Day".
