5 Interesting Facts About Bluebirds!

  • Bluebirds are a symbol of happiness in many cultures around the world - from Native American traditions to European folklore, a bluebird sighting is considered a sign of good things to come.
  • Male bluebirds are brilliantly coloured to attract females, but the females are more subtly coloured - nature's way of keeping mums camouflaged while nesting.
  • Bluebirds nearly went extinct in the 20th century due to loss of nesting sites, but dedicated volunteers across North America put up thousands of nest boxes and helped bring them back.
  • They hunt by perching high up and watching the ground below, then swooping down to catch insects - this hunting technique is called 'perch hunting'.
  • A bluebird's nest is a tidy cup of grass and pine needles - and the female does most of the building while the male sings nearby and brings her gifts of food.
