Nature Done Wright

   Only time will tell if I erred big-time, but a tree service was in my backyard this morning to fell a tree that had been leaning at a 45-degree angle for quite some time. I was a bit concerned it might fall on somebody.
  When I activated the nest-cam monitor today, there was no Ace.
   My guess is that the sawing spooked him  — I wish I had been watching.
   I had phoned the tree service two months ago, before Ace
had started living in the nexting box maybe 10 yards away, and I had
sort of forgotten about it.
   I know that the tree service was extremely busy and  could not get to it until now. My fault.
   At this point, one might say it’s best to just let the chips fall where they may.
   There’s still plenty of time before breeding season, and the nesting box is a prime location, so I am guessing (and really, really hoping) that Ace returns soon.
   At least now the tree can’t fall on him.
