New Bluebird Feeder

We had an old feeder that had been converted from another use that we were using to keep Meal worms in for the Bluebirds.  It had a solid bottom and filled with water when it rained and that caused the worms to rot.  So, this morning I constructed a new feeder out of Cedar with a metal bottom that is full of holes so the water can drain right through.  The picture below is of the house the Bluebirds are currently using to raise another batch of little ones, the new feeder and a Mister Bluebird sitting up on the limb above the feeder checking it out.  They almost always sit up on this limb and then drop down to the feeder.  Many time they go from the feeder directly to the house and feed the little ones.  Fun to watch.
