Dan McCullough<p>She did it! It took the Eastern Phoebe just one week to rebuild her nest that was damaged over the winter. </p><p>The first photo is from 4/22 and is the finished nest. </p><p>The second is from 4/20 and shows how she started adding moss and small strands of plants to it. </p><p>And the third is from 4/15 when she started repairing the nest by building up the foundation with wet mud. </p><p>This must be an ideal protected nesting spot to be chosen 6 straight years. </p><p><a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Birds</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Nests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nests</span></a></p>
Dan McCullough<p>March is when the Eastern Phoebes return and prepare for catching insects and nesting in the eaves of my shed! Their last 5 arrival dates have been: March 27, 23, 20, 23, 18. </p><p>The nest, which has been used in some capacity every year, was badly damaged this winter. The female usually fills in a few weathered holes, but this year it’ll take a much bigger restoration project. </p><p>You can make out the outline of previous years’ nests. Not much left. </p><p><a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Wildlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wildlife</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Birds</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Nests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nests</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Migration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Migration</span></a></p>
