Leandz 5 Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 I have a question if all the blue bird babies don’t leave the nest with the others do the parents still come and feed the one still on the nest ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lonnie 4 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Hi Leandz, I read an article that said older bluebird siblings will help with feeding the young. Now I have evidence of this. I took a picture of a juvenile bluebird carrying a worm into the nest. The yellow part of the underdeveloped mandible can be seen in the picture. I am not sure if all of the juveniles stay at the nest or how long they stay. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lonnie 4 Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 I have seen the older and more mature bluebirds flying into the nesting hole. I assume these are the parents. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
