feeding young Bluebirds





















The video below shows the adult female Eastern Bluebird that flew into the nestbox with a worm dangling from her beak. She fed the worm to one of her four young birds, then turned up to the opening and accepted another worm from the adult male.



In this way they can feed all four of the hatchlings enough so they'll grow to nearly full size in two weeks.
