      I sure hope that your Bluebirds hang around. Nothing like the sight of them to brighten a day. I made sure to have food at the feeders that they like. Have had feeders for years, last year and this are the first time they have been at the feeders. I have actually seen them take the meal worm nugget suets and give the babies.

          I am so glad for you and your blue birds. The year isn’t over yet so you still could have a bluebird pair move in. No I didn’t know about predator guards. I am very scared of snakes too, but guess the mama in me came out when I saw it. All I could think of was protecting the babies. Then I really got to researching everything about bluebirds, Now nest box is on a pole and not a 4 by 4 post. I have both noel guard and stovepipe baffle. Just love watching them fly in and out and feeding.

            Good Morning,

            I had no clue until after the snakes about predator guards. Now I have a hole extender, noel guard and a stove pipe baffle as well as moving the house from a 4 by 4 post to a round pipe. Last night was the first night mama didn’t stay with the babies so they can regulate their body temp now. She and dad are feeding every few minutes this morning. Estimated fledge day is May 2 or 3. I could just sit all day and watch them.
