Hi LT friends,
Over here on Codman Road, we have had the good fortune to have a pair of
bluebirds raising 5 babies. We dealt with the aggressive sparrow by putting
up a sparrow spooker. It worked!  However, sadly today I found the mother
dead. My best guess is that she flew into our window and broke her neck. :(
The male is working his tail feathers off, feeding his young double time
it seems. I am considering getting a bluebird feeder to help him out. I
can't imagine he can raise all five successfully without a helping hand.
I have never put out mealworms for them. Can anyone share if bluebirds will
actually feed their young from a feeder source? If so, I will head to
Russels tomorrow and pick up the supplies.
Any advice is welcome. Thank you.
Best,
Staci
