The Big Day

[Sassy]

Today was the day my first nest of Baby Bluebirds fledged. I did not get to see them take flight but saw the adults taking the mealworms into the trees. This evening there was still one chirping in the box but while I was out for my walk my husband saw it take flight all by it’s lonesome into a big pine tree, so hopefully they will all survive.
If it is not too bad tomorrow I will remove the old nest and clean the box, so it’s ready when Mama needs it again.

Thank you Carol. So glad they made it through the freezing temps.
Hope all of yours are doing good.

Thank you Dana, it was a little nerve wracking this year with the freezing temps and I was so relieved when I heard them cheeping when the mealworms were being delivered by the parents. Now they are in the trees so when this weather settles down a little I will clean out the box, ready for the next bout of bluebird joy.

Yay….Congratulations Connie. I think you are the first report of blues fledging this season. Hope you get to see them flying around your yard soon.
