Thanks for the insight on sparrows. I do notice a battle always going on around the bird house and area with what seems to be just a single sparrow. Maybe it’s more than one, I’m not sure. It’s quite a lively fight. The bluebirds seem to holding their territory so far. Interesting that once they lay their first eggs, I should put up a sparrow spooker – I’ll search online for those.

Thanks for the welcome and the reply. I will take a look at that site you mention. I live in the southern part of NH. I’m just getting started. Had a pair of bluebirds that made a home in a birdhouse last season and just watched and enjoyed them. I don’t know if it’s the same pair, but they are back this season and really enjoying them again, so I thought I’d learn more about them. I’m not really a bird guy, but been working from home and able to watch them right out my window- most active in the morning, so I’ve become really intrigued this second season. My neighbor mentioned that bluebirds wouldn’t make a nest in a painted box, but if that is true, it didn’t seem to matter to this pair of bluebirds. So I’m just trying to learn about them, support their well being without interfering.
