All three baby bluebirds are alive and well in my backyard bluebird house this morning. Each day is a new day for these babies.
The parents continue to feed them and stay close to protect them. I too am keeping a check. A quick peek inside the house to make sure no bugs or other predators have gotten insects.
It is very important to monitor these bird houses. Glad to report good news today.
Snapped this quick photo with my phone as I peeked in just now.

That would be lovely to hear how they are getting on if you can get close to them again.

@lovinangelsinstead21 I see them several times a day. The house is in my garden in my backyard. I monitor them until they fledge.

How much longer until those little fellows start growing feathers? And how are you able to peak in and get a photo without mom or dad having a say about it?

@CarolDM Amazing how the feathers grow in so fast. Are your nights warm enough that the babies don't have to worry about hypothermia?

@moffittjc Oh yes, they are fine. It stays in the 70s and 80s at night.

How sweet! (I’m not going to lie and say they’re “cute,” because at that stage they’re butt ugly....but it’s still new life and very precious!)
