I have a pair of TRES with 6 eggs that I believe hatched today, as the pair is flying in and out all day long. I assume they are feeding the newborn. There is never a time when one of the parents isn’t in the nest, so it’s impossible to monitor, unlike my blue birds who left the nest frequently so I could monitor.
Does anyone have experience with monitoring TRES nest boxes? Seems like a completely different experience then with blue birds.
I set out to do Bluebirds. But my experience now for 13 years is I have had way more TRES. They probably triple the hatchings of the Bluebirds.
