Thank you so much for the beautiful pics! I have lost so many eggs already this year to sparrows (they aren't even building here, just doing it to be mean I guess) even though I have up traps and have killed many already. It is good to know there is sucess out there, and yesterday a pair were making whoopee on the power line so maybe there's hope for my colony yet.

Awe, look at those little guys. It's just a shame to think of how many are needlessly killed by sparrows and starlings every year. Images like that does give one hope.
