The bluebirds are back. We've seen 3 visiting occasionally - can't tell how many males or females yet. They actually snack out of the sunflower seed feeder, visit the birdbath, and seem to be staking a claim on the bluebird box. Hopefully they won't have the problems they had last summer, and can hatch more than one set of eggs.
I am tempted to buy some mealworms for them, even at the insane price of $15+ per pound. The most I pay for anything else is $2/pound for the high-protein peanut mix that the jays like, and even that I mix with black-oil sunflower seed (50 cents/pound).
