Today the chicks have discovered their voices. Plenty of peeping going on. Click on the audio player to hear them.

All the eggs have hatched. The last one about an hour ago. Maw is in and out bringing in the chow.

A few minutes ago we discovered 2 chicks freshly hatched. The shells were discarded as we watched. Finally success!
Four more eggs to go.

It's been about 15 days since the first egg appeared. I expect that we should see one hatch any time now. I intend on starting a time-lapse video of the event if I am home when it occurs. If I do, it will be posted in the movie link.

A new egg has appeared each morning since the first one on the 10th. The female has been attending the nest regularly.

Yesterday morning the wren laid the first egg. This morning a second egg was in the nest. Last time there was a total of 6, which never hatched. We're hoping for better results this time around.

This late morning some wrens started bringing nesting material to birdhouse #1. Hopefully this activity will bring some results.
Also, yesterday I mounted a rain gauge in the middle of the back yard.
