Not to hijack the thread, but I see a bluebird house in the first photo? Any nesters?

We have 5 baby bluebirds that hatched on Wednesday or Thursday this week. I hope to get shots of them fledging in a couple of weeks.

Nice, yes we have 2 boxes and have seen 2 pairs this year .One built a nest and then abandoned it, some wrens tried to move in and we foiled that, now the bluebirds are back looking more serious. Wrens are terrible to bluebirds. I’m guessing you are more south than we are in Michigan. Congrats on your bluebird chicks I ordered some dried mealworms on ebay for when ours have chicks to feed. We do have lots of bugs around but why not spoil them! We also have nesting tree swallows in 2 nests on either side of our barn. They eat lots of mosquitos.

No high jacking around here. Bluebirds are spectalular. Birds are our little pals. They do so much. Please post some pics, I love Bluebirds.
