Thanks, Phyl.  I hope you all have a good celebration on the 4th too.  I don't plan on doing much, but the fireworks don't bother Atlas, so we'll be good.

We report that there is a 3rd clutch for the 2023 Nesting Season!   

We are now looking at possibles  CR-56, 57, 58 , 59,and 60.


Photo was snapped at 4:03 pm on July 11, 2023   

I am guessing that they've only been laid about 4 days based on the activity at and around Nesting Box #1.
However, I'll just check with Jim on  what he thinks.
And, let y'all know.

Wow, that's awesome!  Thanks for keeping an eye on them and sharing the news.  Is a third clutch unusual for a season?

Aww, thanks Phyl for keeping a close watch and sharing this!  Do you think the others will not hatch at this point?

3rd clutch for the 2023 Nesting Season

Sorry for the fuzziness.
The nesting box door raises from the bottom up and has to be held with one hand while the other holds the iphone and snaps the photo.
Upon occasion a photo will look like this,  regardless of the retakes.


Welcome to the world! Cane Ridge #58 !
