I have seen 53 birds at the feeders on our 1/5th-acre lot in town and 6 have nested here, but I've never even seen a bluebird ever.
I would put up a nest box if I thought there was a chance of luring bluebirds here. I will try putting out meal worms if that might attract one or two to the feeder.
I did see a red-headed woodpecker last week at my feeder. First time ever! It was here for two days, then apparently moved on.
I live in southern Ontario in a small town.

Our BBs are not that aggressive here, but then they have Tree Swallows for neighbours. Talk about aggressive... We pair up boxes. Maybe pairing up the smaller holed Chickadee boxes with the Bluebirds' box would help the little "dees"?
A benefit to having the BBs around is all the bugs they eat. ... read more

Be advised though, bluebirds won't nest closer than about 75 yards from another bluebird. They don't seem to mind the wrens though. ... read more

Tree Swallows in a couple of other boxes.
We are located near Parry Sound, Ontario. About two hours north of Toronto.

We can't be sure if it's the same pair or not, but nest building has already resumed for another brood. We've put a second nest box up in the front (not in line of sight of the first) and since we are very rural, on an acre lot, with adjacent woodlands on one side and in back, we are hoping to witness two mating pairs at once.
Both boxes were up in early spring, but could be seen from each other. We did see a second pair checking it out, but have since learned they don't like to be within sight of each other. One box was purchased and my hubby made the ot... read more

Well, I sat for 20 min. yesterday watching a blue bird couple go into the box of chickadees while fighting off the chickadee parents. They went in 4 times and came out with a newly hatched chick and flew off with it in their beak. All the while the chickadees are diving and trying to stop them. After I saw 4 babies carried out I knew it was over. So I went out and cleaned out the box so the blue birds could build theirs.
Maybe you have witnessed this before, but it was my first. I didn't know they were so aggressive! It was an interesting incident.
Just thought I would share.
