The bluebirds bring their young fledglings to the mealworm plate. This is only a small part of the parents' efforts to teach their young how to hunt; another lesson is patience to sit on the hummingbird feeder poles scanning the grass below for insects. It usually pays off. We hope they're learning the territory, so they come back next year and nest again.
