Watch the bluebirds closely to make sure that they incubate them. Also watch out for sparrows and other birds that may crack bluebird eggs or take over the nest.

Usually, most male songbirds are more brightly colored than females. Mainly, the female sits on the eggs, and her dull coloration helps her avoid predation.

New York adopted the Eastern bluebird as their state bird in 1970.

Blue jays are a bird commonly found in the northeast portion of the US. During mating season or when an enemy is in their territory, such as a brown squirrel, a blue jay will intermittently but loudly screech as he/she "dive bombs" at the tree where the blue jay's have their nest.

Not whole grapes. If you cut them into smaller pieces maybe but they don't eat grapes.

No, bluebirds are not swallows.

They give many bluebirds a place to live at the same time. The population can increase because of the amount of bluebirds that can nest in that area.

Different parrots have different life spans. Macaws 50 - 100 + Cockatoos 40 - 60 + Amazons 50 - 70 + African Grays 50 - 60 + Eclectus 65 - 85 Conure 12 - 30 Lories and Lorikeets 13 - 25 Caique 30 Senegal 50 years Cockatiel 12 to 20 Parakeets 7 to 18 years Lovebirds average 15 to 25 Canaries average 10 to 15 years Finches average 5 to 10

Usually right around 2 weeks.

You can put nest boxes out with bird feeders and hay. The birds will feel safe within a nest box.

Only from the western mountains. Birds further east do not normally migrate, unless the winter is very harsh.

No bluebird nest box is sparrow proof. You can however discourage sparrows from nesting there. Avoid places next boxes close to barns, feedlots, and farmsteads. These provide plenty off cover for sparrows. Sparrows may not like nest boxes made of PVC pipe because the interior is circle. They also dislike slot boxes.

Bluebirds benefit from woodpeckers. Sometimes bluebirds use old woodpecker holes to build nests in.

The Migratory Bird Act makes it illegal to disturb the nest of any native bird without a permit. The Migratory Bird Act also makes it illegal to kill native birds, destroy native bird eggs and trap native birds. Check with your local wildlife service to see if bluebirds are native to your area. If they are native in your area it is illegal to "get rid of it". Try to enjoy the bird and be glad house sparrows aren't killing it.

Yes, for short amounts of time. I have a bluebird nest in a birdhouse on my deck. Whenever I let my dog out, the male will dive at my dog to warn her, and when I let her in, the bird hovers for around 5 seconds about 10 feet from the door until I shut it.

you should clean it out so that another bird will be able to nest in the next year and you will have the experience of getting to watch them again.

Yes, they do.

Most of the country drives during an eastern North American summer will turn up a few Eastern Bluebirds sitting on telephone wires or perched atop a nest box, calling out in a short, wavering voice or abruptly dropping to the ground after an insect. Marvelous birds to capture in your binoculars, male Eastern Bluebirds are a brilliant royal blue on the back and head, and warm red-brown on the breast. Blue tinges in the wings and tail give the grayer females an elegant look.

This is a robin.

Yes, but the wren may try and take over the bluebird nest.

Bluebirds live on the continent of North America. There are different species in the Eastern, Mountain and Western portions of the continent.

Probably because it has found what it needs to live. Food, water, air, and shelter.
