Unfortunately, my first brood of baby bluebirds did not make it after three days. I checked on the nest today. Mom and dad are still protecting and watching over However, the babies were not alive. Dad is being very protective and swooping in on me. How long should I leave the nest? They are still going in and out of the nest so I wonder if I should leave it for a couple days until they have rejected the nest. So very sad. It has been an unusually cold week since their birth so I feel like the low temperatures down to the mid 30s had something to do with their chances of survival.
