Mrs. Spot was telling me the other day that she has new
neighbors. A pair of newly wed nuthatches bought a pent house hollow in the oak
tree near her burrow. The nuthatches want to have a big family. Mr. Nuthatch is
an investor advisor and Mrs. Nuthatch is a lawyer at a big Boston law firm. (This explains how they can
afford the 5,000 seed per month mortgage!) She plans on working from home
during the nesting season. This house is really grand. It has this huge front
entrance. It is big enough for five chipmunks to walk in side by side. Inside
it has cathedral ceilings. (I can just imagine how many seeds I could store
in such a cavernous space …) Oh, well a chipmunk can always dream.
