June 30, 2009 - Bluebirds Feeding Second Clutch of Chicks |
|
|
|
Both adult bluebirds are making regular mealworm runs to the nestbox above our horse pasture. From the volume of mealworms they are taking, the chicks must be getting big.
A juvenile catbird was cheeping away this morning begging to be fed, but the adult catbird is into the tough love phase "get your own".
For the first time in awhile, I have seen chickadees at the feeders the last few days, so that means the "chicklets" are starting to leave their nests in the woods and the parents are getting a bit of a break from feeding duties.
