Thanks pollen and Lily. pollen - the nest box is a standard Petersen, about 7.5" x 6.5" x 12" tall. The interior base footprint is about 5.5" x 5". I have installed a make-shift heat shield made of scrap T-111 board to help with the sun during the hot months in Virginia. I have included a photo of the house.

Lily, sorry about your wayward birds. Keep the nestbox clean and maybe they will show up for the "second" nesting.

Did a recalculation on the hatch date. It should be May 8 or 9. I will let you know when the female starts sitting for good.
