Fledged Bluebirds

It's always a joy to watch as bluebirds fledge and start learning to live on their own. This morning one of the young bluebirds was perched on the fence in our front yard. He sat there for quite a while. Meanwhile, Mr. Bluebird was on the power lines near the road catching insects. The young bird saw this and flew to his dad asking for food. Mr. Bluebird fed him a few insects while Junior watched intently as Dad hunted. He's learning and it won't be long before he's completely self-sufficient.
