As strange as this might sound, a pair of titmice are already investigating a nest box here in Utley...No nest building or anything like that, but they are definitely checking it out. I have seen them looking in three times and once even entering it briefly. Well being the Purple Martin junkie I am, I note per the PMCA website the the first reported male for Texas was from Seguin yesterday. This 3 days shy of average date in January. ********************************************************************** Brush Freeman 503-551-5150 Cell http://texasnaturenotes.blogspot.com/ Finca Alacranes., Utley,Texas Edit your Freelists account settings for TEXBIRDS at //www.freelists.org/list/texbirds Reposting of traffic from TEXBIRDS is prohibited without seeking permission from the List Owner
