Looks like two males and a female – my favorite backyard visitor. My problem here in NW Virginia is that European Starlings and one bossy American Robin overtake the two mealworm feeders I put out. I also get Yellow-rumped Warblers, Carolina wrens, Tufted Titmouse, and Dark-eyed Juncos that have developed a taste for the dried mealworms – gets expensive to keep them happy.
Gave me idea 💥🙀 !! We have a Bluebird box in our front yard and each year 1-3 clutches of blue birds are born. The hanging platform feeder with dried meal worms is a great attraction for my yearly Blue Birds who are nesting in my box .Thanks feederwatch for your support and idea ! 💡! Your contribution to bird watching is appreciated and wonderful.
I’ve had the same problem with black birds. One thing you might try is putting out a bird bath. I found that blue birds really love a bird bath in the hot summer.
