Title: second hatch for our Chickadees
Post by: Rob'in'To on July 07, 2012, 02:22:53 PM

So happy to announce we have a second hatch with the Chickadees.  I saw an adult bring a mouthful of insects in yesterday, then heard the little peeps.  A bit later I had a view of one little baby face peeking out the nest box entrance at me.  The little ones were a lot more vocal this morning and I figure its the lack of humidity.

I've heard from a few that Chickadees don't normally have a second nest in one season.  Any comments on this?
