Most bluebirds do not live very long, and even though they can live up to four or five years old, well over 50% of all bluebirds don't live longer than one year. They are a beautiful, yet vulnerable species. Mounting a bluebird nestbox on your property will help sustain the bluebird's comeback.

Bluebird numbers declined in the early 20th Century, but thanks to bird enthusiasts across the country who have installed bluebird boxes (and trails), blue birds have made a miraculous come back. Eastern bluebirds prefer open grassland areas with few trees and little shrubs. They are commonly found in open fields and pastures. If your property has little growth with flat, wide yard spaces, a bluebird box will make for a nice attraction for local bluebirds.

Nature works with the feathers of a bluebird, as the feathers don't really have any blue pigment, but only appear blue to the human eye. When light is shining directly on them, the feathers look blue, but during low light, or when light is not directly shinning on them, feathers look gray or black. A process known as "structural coloration" allows keratin protein structures found in hair and feathers to act as prisms that scatter light and amplify the blue wavelength. The blue wavelengths of light are perceived by our eyes, causing the feathers to look blue when they're really not.
