Watching the numbers of birds grow.
I’m in central Ms and bout 3 weeks ago 3 came in. Actually about a month ahead of the normal date. By last weekend, I was up to 9.
I have my 2 houses with 6 BO 9s under each of them right now, but going to sink a new post to raise a new house on this weekend
That’ll give me 24 cavities for them to nest it.
Sure is exciting

Congrats!!! It is exciting, wonderful really.
It is a common theme it seems, early returns. I wonder what egg laying will be like...early or on time?
Sounds like your going to have a wonderful time planning the new pole and watch it fill!
