>> Good morning,
>>
>> While I was in Pubnico yesterday, Raymond d'Entremont brought me to a
>> house in Lower West Pubnico where a pair of Eatern Bluebirds have
>> nested. At the time we could only see the female sitting on the nest.
>> The owners of the property have pictures of both birds.
>>
>> The nest is in the top section of a multiple unit bird house, which is
>> located next to an old hay field. Ideal habitat for them. The male has
>> been seen (and photographed) in their garden feeding on insects.
>>
>> I will post an update when the young arrive.
