All Natural Diet

Today’s post features a couple of images I captured at the church bluebird box (Laurie, Missouri) a few days ago.

As the four babies in the nest are rapidly growing in size, both parents are constantly hunting for insects to feed the young bluebirds. In this post, I feature a couple of images of the beautiful male bluebird as it brings food to the babies:

Bringing back a caterpillar:

And a moth:

In another post I will feature the female parent as she stays busy, too!
