    Still looking to talk to someone about HOSP. Is there anyone I can talk to via email about HOSP? Or if messaging is available on this forum, we can use that, I just don’t see any option/button for it on the site. Thanks.

    House Sparrows = Bad
    Elimination of House Sparrows = Good

    I would be very glad to talk to you about the elimination of house sparrows.

    Here they are at day 2. The 2 on either side of the one in the middle had their beaks open before I was able to snap the picture.

    Not much happening here. The female is sitting on the eggs off and on. I did notice an interesting event about a half hour ago. I just put some mealworms out in the feeder. Both birds watched me. When I went in the house and look out my back window I saw the female blue enter the nest box while the male went to the feeder. After he had eaten a few of the mealworms, he appeared to pick up a couple and flew to the nest box to feed the female. He has just finished his 3rd trip.

    I think that I mentioned the moving the box in another thread. I have done that in the past. I moved the box from my back yard to the front yard. The Blues found it and built another nest, which did survive the rest of the season. I kept it out of sight from the original position. I do have an acre and a half lot to work with and my house is centered in the lot.

    I am not sure what happened to the previous post but I will try again.

    Prior post “Tim, after you post your photo on imgur, back-click one page, then click “Posts”. Your photos should appear. Click on the on your photo in “imgur”, click the three buttons next to “Copy link”.

    Tim, and all. You DO NOT have to “back-click” after you post your photo. Just click on it and then “Click” on the your photo in “imgur”, click the three buttons next to “Copy link”. Under “Share Options” click the “BBCode link” and paste it in your forum post.

    I have never figured out the proper way to post images on this forum. The forum that hosts my photos has a BBCodes version of the image but I haven’t been able to figure out how to use it.

    Tim, after you post your photo on imgur, back-click one page, then click “Posts”. Your photos should appear. Click on the on your photo in “imgur”, click the three buttons next to “Copy link”.

    In the pop-up window, click on the “BBCode – copy link”
    Then in your forum post “paste” the link that you have just copied.

    The photo will not show up in your typed message but will show up in the Forum section when you hit “Submit”
    Hope this helps.

    I use “imgur.com.” A little tricky to use at first but it is free. I started using it 4 or 5 years ago when Photobucket started charging for use.
