6/30/22 - Hammo S.P., 9:00 am, Red-Breasted Nuthatch in the cedars at the very end of the small loop trail at the end of the Willlard Island Trail. 

Another topic, our recent bluebird nestlings have apparently died of disease.  Three "fell" out of the box alive, but two were subsequently found dead.  And there were 3 dead nestlings in the box.  Anybody reporting similar events?
