Our cats are one year old this week and they have finally discovered the birds. This creates a bit of a problem, especially since the bluebirds are nesting in the Gilbertson PVC box, just outside the dining room window. The cats sit on the window sill, just three feet from the nest. The birds can see them and it puts them off. They don't realize ours are indoor cats and that there is a closed window between them.

I have a remote controlled camera with a 200mm lens set up on a tropod and focused on the nest box so hopefully I can capture anything unusual that might occur. Here is Buster on the dining room table (where he is only allowed to be when we are gone), checking out the camera. In some of these shots he actually seems to be peering through the viewfinder.
