# 5 Bluebird Houses

Last Updated on February 1, 2021

Watch for wildlife.  With luck, you may see bluebirds, turkeys, squirrels, pheasants, bear, deer, coyote, and, with extreme luck, a bald eagle.  At least once in recent years while boiling sap at the sugar house late at night, coyote pups were seen and heard.  In fact, one July, two adult coyotes and five pups made this field their playground.

It is fairly easy to notice bluebird houses all around the fields of Hurry Hill Farm, and for good reason.  Their favorite food is the gypsy moth, and these moths are a real pest for maple trees.  If you care to protect a sugar maple, install a neighboring bluebird house!
