Feeding Time
Papa Bluebird feeding a mealworm to one of his youngsters. They have been making regular visits to the mealworm feeder, as often as five times a day. I have a large mealworm feeder, with a roof to offer protection, and large enough for as many as eight bluebirds to be inside at one time. Dad has been teaching the youngsters how to enter and exit the feeder, but they still prefer to have Dad drop their food directly into their mouths. The feeder is in our "bird tree" very close to our house, the background in this image is the potting shed. Backyard birds.
