Spring will be here soon. The bluebirds usually arrive the last of February or in March. Depends on the weather.
Last year I had so many birds building nests in the backyard, they were unsuccessful in raising a family. I was very sad as this was the fist time in about ten years with no bluebirds.
The robins made it here first and had two nests when the bluebirds arrived. The robins were protecting their nests and chased off the bluebirds.
We will see what happens this year. I really hope to have bluebirds and babies. Fingers crossed.
This photo was taken last year. They built a nest but was never able to lay the eggs.

Hopefully this year will please you with a generation.
i love where you put your watermark!!!
i truly (fingers, toes and legs crossed) hope that they return this year!!!!!
Thanks for noticing, most do not. I try not to allow it to take over the photo. I saw two this morning and actually heard them before I got up. A great sign.
that is a fantastic sign!!!!!
I hope you are having bluebirds this year and you share about them. Good luck. Will you give them worms????
I hope so too, thank you. It will be a few more weeks before they are ready to start a nest. Tried the worms and the mockingbirds took over, they are twice the size. I have tried dried mealworms and that worked one year, in an enclosed feeder. They are ground feeders and usually prefer getting their own food.
These are very beautiful birds, dear friend
Thanks, I hope to see more this year.
It is always nice to see the bluebirds, even if it’s just on a photo.
Thank you Ellie, I hope to see them soon this year.
I remember well your enthusiasm. I hope you are lucky with the bluebirds and babies this year.
Thanks so much, I hope the same as well.
The title should have said 2019.
