Bluebirds The eastern bluebird is the state bird of both New York and Missouri. Western bluebirds are found west of the Rocky Mountains from Canada to Mexico. The mountain bluebird also inhabits much of western North America—often at elevations above 7,000 feet (2,133 meters). Bluebirds eat small fruits and hunt insects, spiders, and other creatures from above. The birds perch, watch, and then swoop to the ground to pounce on their prey.

Managing Habitat for Eastern Bluebirds Bluebirds often use clear-cuts as nesting and feeding sites, and may nest in cavities in snags or in trees left standing on a clear-cut for 12 or more years following a timber harvest. After that period of time, shrubs close in and reduce the amount of open herbaceous groundcover that is the preferred feeding habitat of bluebirds.

Critter Catalog Eastern bluebirds mate in spring and summer. A mature female will typically raise two broods each season. Females do most of the nest building over about 10 days. The nests are cup-shaped, and lined with soft grass. They are built in abandoned woodpecker holes or other cavities that provide protection (usually several feet above ground). Each female lays 3 to 7 (on average 4 or 5) light-blue eggs.
