Think Bluebirds!!!

Bluebirds are pairing up and scouting for nesting sites NOW! Are you ready?

Eastern Bluebirds begin defining and defending their nesting territories earlier than other species. Generally, starting the end of February and early March.

The Backyard Naturalist team is overjoyed to report that we’re seeing Bluebirds very active at our store feeders and baths right now! We’re keeping feeders filled with freeze-dried meal worms, sunflower chips, peanut pieces and Bluebird Nuggets.

Visit our dedicated Bluebird page for more specific info or shop our Bluebird Essentials here.
