Carolina Chickadee babes!

I placed a Hole Guard on the nestobox to protect the CACH from larger birds. It reduces the hole from 1.5 to 1.125 inches. You have to wait to add one until eggs are layed to ensure the Mom has bonded with the nest. I waited and when she left I quickly mounted it. After 3 visits checking out the new thing she entered the nestbox.



I took this picture 2 days ago. 3 of 6 eggs had just hatched. They are so tiny!

Great job!
