    The main point being that while we associate Elk w/ the mountains in a modern context, and thus the idea of them on the plains is fascinating, historically we had them all over. I think we are bugling passed each other on this one.

    American Kestrels used a nest box on our Palisade house this year. Only three eggs were laid with two apparently infertile so this lone male chick gets all the mice, lizards and grasshoppers it wants. Kestrels (our smallest American falcon) also nested in another box in an apricot tree on the farm.

    I build a lot of nesting boxes that get used. Never seen a more freaked out chick though... you must be the first thing it's ever seen.

    I'm the first purple people monster it has ever seen. But chicks typically have their mouths open anytime one approaches the box because they expect to be fed when something arrives. And yes, I'm sure I'm pretty scary to young chicks.
