Hi All=2C
=20
   I finished cleaning out my Tree Swallow boxes today and it turns out tha=
t last season was very successful.=20
   Here are the results.
   19 --- Number of boxes checked =20
   1 ---- Empty box
   13 --- Boxes with nests and breeding evidence=20
   1 ---- Box with completed nests but no breeding evidence
   1 ---- Box with nest (breeding evidence unknown) + Flying Squirrel nest =
with adult Flying Squirrel (possibly with young as it refused to leave box)=
=20
   1 ---- Box with nest and breeding evidence + Flying Squirrel nest with y=
oung but no adult (baby squirrels were less than a week old as they were ve=
ry small=2C pink and blind)=20
   1 ---- Box with nest and breeding evidence + complete Flying Squirrel ne=
st but no squirrels
   1 ---- Box with nest and breeding evidence + partial Flying Squirrel nes=
t but no squirrels
=20
    This is the most Flying Squirrel activity I've ever observed in my boxe=
s. I'm hoping to add a few new boxes this season - if time allows.
   =20
    The pair of Barn Swallows I reported two days ago are still roosting in=
 the nearby barn despite lots of activity in the barn. All the best.
