The Mountain Laurel is in full bloom on the Cumberland Plateau in Tennessee and in our backyard. Nancy took this photo in our yard just beside the Bluebird box.
Good news....the Bluebird babies hatched two days ago and the male and female are very busy flying back and forth to the nest supplying insects to the kiddos. It is a good thing that the pole supporting the nextbox has a predator guard because the other two bird feeder poles in the yard have muddy raccoon prints all the way to the top to get the birdseed. The other night Nancy woke me up at 2am to listen to a raccoon fight in the backyard. It was very loud growling, snarling and screeming. We turned the spotlights on but the raccoons got into the woods before we could see them.
