Well we have our first two baby bluebirds 3 eggs havent hatched yet. Last year this pair hatched eggs on 5/6/2010. The nest is dry and clean even with this windy and rainy spring the ¼ inch mesh on which the nest sits is about 4 inches off the bottom.
We regularly fed this pair mealworms and a suet/blueberry/raisin mix all winter and continue to do so I am guessing this may be partly the reason for such and early laying of eggs and hatching.
