I saw a pair of bluebirds on Sunday afternoon hanging around our yard. I immediately ran to the store and bought them a nesting box. They were in the box within the first couple hours of hanging it. I couldn’t believe how quickly they moved in. They’ve been a joy to watch 🥰

I live in a rural community in Mississippi about 17 miles north of the Gulf Coast. I started building bluebird houses about 35 years ago. I now have about 130 houses in three different counties. Most of them produces three broods a year. I had about 800 birds last year and already have many with their first brood. This had been a great and enjoyable hobby for me

Last summer a baby bluebird appeared in our driveway after a storm. He was too young to fly and we weren’t sure what kind of bird it was. We took him in and raised him up and turned out to be a male bluebird and we named him Pete. Boy what a smart bird and eyesight blew me away. We did let him go when we felt he could go. I sure miss him, but he is happier now I am sure❤️🐦

My son and I built a bluebird house yesterday, on Christmas :) He just turned 3 and got an Audubon kit that came with a little plush eastern bluebird under the Christmas tree. We looked up this video so he could see a "real" bluebird

I had no idea they're numbers were threatened. I just made a note to put up a box/house for them whenever I move into a house.

Love bluebirds! They have built a nest in my new bird box! I’m so excited! I’ve made all of my nest boxes all by myself.

I just saw an eastern bluebird for the first time today! It inspired me to learn more about them and I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for teaching me and I look forward to carrying the torch and encouraging these cute birds’ happy lives.

Lesleythe, ? I have 18 acres and about 250 acres of woods, 4 acres behind my house is meadow and I have had a super increase in bluebird population over the last 15-20 years, it’s absolutely the coolest. Thanks for another great video. You’re woods walks are awesome. Dave

I live in Maine, last year I had one bluebird. This year I have many. I also have 2 pairs in nesting box. Thank you so much for this video I learned alot.

I used to see them when I was a child, eons ago. When I moved into eastern CT, I found them again, and they will visit my seed feeders and suet feeders.

I remember hearing about endangered bluebirds as a kid back in the 90's; I'm so glad to know conservation efforts are helping 💜

After Hurricane Michael in 2018, scores of dead trees littered our community- Panama City, FL ...they were quite unsightly - but what a surprise to see these bluebirds a couple of years later find our community quite lovely and decided to raise their broods here!

Louisiana: I saw my first Bluebird in the 1970s. I told my third grade teacher who said it was a Bluejay. When I described how it was different she told me in no uncertain terms that I was mistaken, there was no such bird.

Fast forward to the mid 2000 teens and I saw another one, this time while working in Colorado. I did some research and was pleased to know that I had seen one as a child.

Back home in Louisiana, they began popping up around the house and have steadily increased. The last few years and especially this year, I see many of them every morning and evening. I am truly grateful for the work that has brought this wonderful bird back into our lives.

Our family helped our local park build and set up a Bluebird trail! It was so rewarding to see the baby bluebirds the next spring! Although I can no longer hike I know in some small way we helped generations of baby bluebirds!
