After the wasp ..…..the bluebirds return










The male Bluebird came by this morning to check the nest for wasps. After he gave the all clear Lady B appeared.  











She cautiously peeked inside.....and then ventured in.  I hope she likes it well enough to build a nest.

  







As a side note I did put meal worms out this morning  to encourage them after the wasp incident yesterday .  I didn't see the bluebirds in the feeder, but the worms disappeared  quickly.......... I'm amazed at how quickly the little chickadees and tufted titmouse  find them !!


Later in the day .....





The male checked the nest again this evening and then perched on a tree limb close to my house and the box - enjoying the early evening light and  guarding his territory. 
I'm not sure if this is my bluebird from last summer but he seems to like some of the same favorite perches.
