I love this kind of question....it just fasinates me the different species of birds all around the world that choose to let us mere humans help them out!
My own yard hosted Eastern Bluebirds for the first time this year
4 fledged, 1 brood
Tree Swallow, 4 fledge
Chipping sparrow 1st nesting victim to the cowbird then abandoned -pair hung but don't know if it started up again
Song sparrow 3(?) fledged
House wren, late nesting, (unknown how many are still making noise in the box)
Robins, Robins, Robins (American ones) They are flocking in the tree tops like the crows do...huge successful season for them.
Black-capped chickadee 3 fledged
Cardinal 3 fledged in 2 nestings (1st one destroyed by dog and flood)
Mallards 10 hatched, 9 survive after 1st swim day, 0 survived after day 3... assume same butt head of a neighbor dog that got loose and thought she found some toys to play with??
Scrub line hosted mourning doves
Coopers Hawk, 1 fledge and hunting in the open
Deer (2 fawns, born late in season)
