I have had good success with a Bluebird house, babies, and, as well as, feeding these and other songbirds with specific hanging feeders. Bluebirds enjoy dried Mealworms, as do Northern Cardinals, Palm and Yellow-backed Warblers, Northern Mockingbirds, and Brown Thrashers. Also, I use a hanging platform feeder with Safflower seed that is eaten by Mourning Doves, House Finches, Northern Cardinals, and other birds. A suet feeder is also a successful food source. I have thousands of pictures of these birds and their behaviors. Bird watching, feeding and photographing is my daily joy, along with participating in the Great Backyard Bird Count, and posting pics on-line. By the way, I continue to try attracting Hummingbirds, but with very little success. Good luck!
