No, my blues have not started nesting. They are thinking about it, as are the song sparrows and the Carolina wrens. I only have enough room on my lot for one nestbox and I leave it up all year round. The blues treat it as their own and chase away any bird that dares perch on it. Even as I write this, the female is flying around with grass in her beak, but I think it's just for show. Typically they start about this time so it should be very soon.
