When checking the Edgewood bluebird trail, I saw Sandhill Cranes.
They were not afraid of the golfers and did a dance for us.

Oooops!
....wrong family! Our wood duck family is very elusive. The ducklings float close to their mother, who swims in the milfoil near the reeds, in order to keep her brood well camouflaged. It's time to get out the big old 35mm camera with the telescopic lens. Stay tuned for photos of the wood duck family in our next installment of "Wood Duck Haven"

young bluebirder
For our weekly bluebird check, Bob brought his grandson, Calvin along. This week we found 30 bluebird chicks, some might leave the nest in the coming week. There are many tree Swallow nests on our trail. As we traveled our trail, we came upon a box with a house sparrow in it. Calvin said "A house sparrow! what does he think, I thought it was a bluebird trial or does he think it's a house sparrow trail?" It was a great visit to the trail with Calvin along.

technical difficulties
Our ducklings fledged from box #1 on May 19Th. We had technical difficulties posting the video. So with no further ado, enjoy this clip from yesterday.
