I observed a chickadee pair while they gathered green moss from the ground in my back yard then carried it to the wren box nearby. I had planned to secure the box on a pole soon but now I don't know if I should move it. Unlikely as it may seem, the wren box has been through several storms with high winds and has remained intact. I didn't intend for it to be used quite this early in the season but the chickadees were a step ahead of me. Should I move it now or wait until their family is gone- what would you do?
Not the best lighting conditions for photos, but I had to take a few shots of these cute little birds as they worked on their nest.
Have a great Wednesday!

oh i wuv chickadees! If they're happy where it is...I'd not touch it :)
ReplyDeleteGreat captures of these busy little chickadees. I am no expert but my instincts tell me not to move it. Though they might be wrong and I would be very interested in what more knowledgeable birders have to say. I hope you can get some good advice. These really are sweet photos.
ReplyDeletethey will probably do well as it is. If the branch is strong enough. Gorgeous images :)
ReplyDeleteHi! The chickadees are very cute. They will have their babies soon. Thanks for sharing.
