After all the snow yesterday, it was raining this morning and just as it was getting light I had another non-duck visitor entering one of my duck house boxes. And while a squirrel has visited a few weeks ago, I didn’t expect to see one carrying its new baby into the duck box. I don’t know if something happened to her original nesting site as the heavy snow did break several tree limbs, but she carried in five little babies. And later in the day, she carried lots of oak leaves in that covered her and the babies underneath so it didn’t look like anyone was in the duck box except for occasional slight movement of a leaf.
