Sad to report the nest didn’t make it. The dee laid six eggs and all were removed or punctured by the HOWR. In my neighborhood it’s all pretty much HOSP and HOWR. The local patch of woods was illegally destroyed by Xfinity several years ago, so few prospects for dees. As Ann Arbor seeks to allow more density in single family neighborhoods, more woods will go. I won’t add to the already exploding population of HOWR, so I removed the nest box entirely. It was a learning experience. Check out “Althea Sherman” and the great house wren controversy.
