Hello!
I had a clutch of Eastern Bluebirds fledge yesterday and I was very happy and excited! Then, in ONE day, this morning I heard House Wrens for the first time this season. They have moved IN to the bluebird house, looks like nesting on top of the bluebird nest. Should I clear it out? Cover up the opening for a few days to dissuade them? Last year, I had three different broods come from that nest box. I was going to reach out and ask if I should clean it out anyway, and then the wrens moved in.
Advice?
Many thanks, Jean Whatley Webster Groves, STL Co.
