Thread: Waiting for the Bluebirds!!!!!!!!!!!

Last year I saw my first bluebird March 10....it was snowing and the poor thing was at my feeder. Hoping to see one any day now, lol!
Still havent seen a robin in South Central Wis yet!

Bluebirds are my favorite. I have boxes and wait on them every year.

We have them already. I heard a screeching out back and that's when I knew they were here. I love birds.

Aw, lucky you, Carrie!
LeeAnn, I few years ago I begged my Dad to make me some houses! He is a builder, so I knew hecould handle some BB homes. Got 6 for my Bday!

I put out meal worms for my bluebirds. They love them! It's a big treat because I don't go to the store too often and buy worms! for birds :) We have buds on dogwoods, blooms on bartlett pear trees and cherry trees. The buttercups are up and in bloom too. Spring is in the air. It was 80 degrees one day last week although it is back in the 30's at night but this is how the season CHANGES- Yea :)

Cyn, me too!!!!! True story....I am terrified of worms. Hate them so much, but I buy them for the bluebirds, and make BF and the kids put them in the little feeder for me!

we had 2 here last week! Then it snowed.

Cyn, where do you find the worms? we have a pair that has raised 4-5 ????nest of babies, don't know what they're called but want them to stay, also does anybody know how to attract red birds? we tried sunflower seeds but only had onw passerby, I would like for the mocking birds and blue jays to leave tho. LOL :oops: we have oodles of doves, 3-4 different kinds

we had a small flock of bluebirds mid February. also a large flock of about thirty robins were here about a week then moved on. trees budding and wildflowers all blooming. then turned cold and snowed several times. false spring.
