Shep, I thought I was imagining a different female at the GSB nest box with Newman earlier today.  Your post proved me correct!

Newman could have a whole box full of eggs if all these females lay here -- not gonna happen, but a fun picture to think about.

Unlikely - but
Savannah may lay eggs inside box
and new girl in RLD under the box

if you fertilize - feed the seed!

This site is where the action is!  This morning about 10:00, I believe Newman caught a bird and took it to the RLD, where Savanna consumed it while he watched from under the overhang.  Ins and outs and calling -- better on the rewind.

Savana was happily eating a snack this morning and in came Newman.  She went back to eating after.  She sure had a full crop!
