I love your description of the situation.  You are fortunate to be able to witness it.. Once the nest is empty, I never tend to see the fledglings. Only once did I see the father feeding three fledglings atop a telephone pole. Had I not seen the activity and been as ble to zoom in with my camera, I wouldn't have witnessed that time. From 2011:   So glad that their nesting was successful. (Full success will be achieved when your late bloomers finally get into the real world. )

All have now left the nest! The box is cleared out ready for one more brood (hopefully!)

I spotted a bluebird in my yard both yesterday and the day before! Once in the trees and the second time near the feeder. Just what could be interesting him at the feeder? If I knew that, I'd spread out some more of what's attracting him. Any guesses???

Unfortunately, I don't know what could be attracting them...could it just be the activity of other birds made him curious to check it out?

I don't know? Should I buy some mealworms for it? That's what they eat don't they?

Cool! I can't get bluebirds in my city yard. It's always a treat to see them when we go out for a walk at one of the local nature centers where they have nest boxes.
