SC Bluebirds Incubating



Carolinabirders,

At the Sandhills Research and Education Center in northeast 
Columbia, SC, bluebirds have begun laying eggs and incubating. 
Yesterday's weekly bluebird nest box check found 1 bird incubating 
and several nests with eggs. In 1998 the first eggs were found 30 
March and in 1999 it was 10 April.

Also multiple nests of Brown-headed Nuthatches and chickadees 
have begun incubating. These species are about a week earlier 
than the past 2 years.

Good Birding,    lex
