The baby bluebirds left the nest yesterday. First, each one perched in the nest opening, while Mom and Dad called encouragement from a nearby tree branch. Then, one at a time, they took their first flight. They landed on the ground, on a tree trunk, on a tree branch, and high up on the side of an electrical pole. Mom and Dad are already looking to build a new nest in a nearby house.

Baby birds seem so vulnerable when they leave the nest. Don't you love seeing them take their first flight?
they will help keep the grasshopper crop down.
