Bluebirds Feeding

Nine days ago, the female Bluebird was still building up her nest.

Since then, I have seen both Bluebirds flying in and out of the birdhouse, and landing on the nearby magnolia tree.

Yesterday, he brought her some food, a cricket I think.

Thank you, dear!

You are welcome! Shall I go get some more?

She went back into the birdhouse. He flew away. About an hour later, he came back and fed her something white, maybe a larva? It happened too quickly for me to get a shot.

Among our backyard birds, a couple of Eastern Bluebirds are setting up their nest in a birdhouse right in the back of our family room. Here are some shots of them, taken this past weekend.

There are other birds which come to the birdfeeder, sometimes landing on the Yellow Magnolia tree to wait for their turn.

It has been a wet spring here in New Jersey, and the flowers have responded well to it, displaying more stress-reducing blooms.
