There are five Eastern Bluebird eggs in Nestbox Delta. This is the third clutch this season. We cleared out the nestbox about a week ago after it appeared there was a successful fledge of four birds.

We observed a White tail doe and her fawn about 2 p.m. yesterday. Patrick saw the deer jump the fence from our neighbor's property to the north and then the fawn rose up. He had time to get his camera and one or two photos before the two animals moved back toward the north and disappeared in the tall grass. This morning, Patrick found a matted place in the grass where the pair may have stayed.

We drained and replenished the water in the two rain collection barrels connected to our small animal watering pans.
