Tree Swallow Nest III

My Tree Swallows now have feathers! They look very similar to Purple Martins at this stage.

Four of the five other nest boxes in the area now have House Wren dummy nests in them. Today a male was busy bringing sticks into one of the boxes.

Duck feathers. Probably some Wood Duck flank feathers in there ?

So it'll be time to test those wings and soar!

It took me a few seconds to see the babies! Very sweet. Do you know what the nest feathers are?
