- A Fascinating Look at Baby Bluebirds: Time-Lapse Video with Live Nest Box Cam.
I built my first birdhouse as a way to get back into woodworking. I didn't think much about what I would do with that birdhouse. Eventually I put it outside and on a whim, I put a camera inside it. It was fascinating to watch the babies and parents inside! I've been videoing birds ever since.

Thank you for not adding unnecessary music, narration, corner selfies cooing how cute they are, or constant on screen begging for likes and subscriptions. Thumbs up.
Glad you liked it!
Dad brings Mom food while she keeps eggs warm and safe. So sweet! Bluebirds are beautiful!❤
Yes they are!
@donnaleighjenkins4952, I know, I thought it was super 🥰 Sweet how the "Daddy Bird" goes and gets the "Momma Bird" some Food "while she's protecting the Eggs," and, I thought it was truly Amazing "to see both the "Momma Bird" and the "Daddy Bird" both Helping Build their "Love Nest" together and how both of them also help Tend to their Babies... Now, if only more HUMAN GUYS would be as caring and helpful towards raising up their 👶 "HUMAN BABIES," what a better WORLD we'd live in... 😊
omg even their eggs are blue 🥺💙
That is cool!
no wonder why their blue birds 💙🩵
They're such good parents!!! And I had no idea that they stayed as couples and took care of the babies as a family....🥹🥹🥹
They are good parents!
"Awe," Thank You @ Birds Walking Down for posting this AWESOME Video... I so LOVE watching Awesome Videos like this of GOD'S Beautiful Created 🐦 Blue Birds... It truly "AMAZES" Me "that a Bird with only a Beak and Two small Claws can build such a neat Bird's Nests, and, it's also so super 🥰 Sweet "to see both the "Momma Bird" and the "Daddy Bird" both Helping Build their "Love Nest" together and how both of them also help Tend to their Babies... It also amazes Me the things that BIRDS will find on the ground to build their Nests with. One day, back in (1996) while outside, I was cutting my little niece's HAIR, and I no longer threw some of her hair over to the side "that I had cut," and a BIRD must have been WATCHING us, because the BIRD swooped down and quickly grabbed my niece's HAIR that I had cut off, and my little niece who was around (4 years old at the time) says: "Hey," that Bird just took my Hair. So I told my niece that that Birdy was going to use her HAIR to help build its NEST. Then, back in in (2016 or 2017) while I was outside playing with my young nephew (who was around 5 or 6 years old), I saw a Bird's Nest that had fell out of a Tree, and onto the ground, so Me and my Nephew walked over to check it (to make sure there was no baby birdies in the Nest), and the Bird's Nest was empty. But, I couldn't believe what all we saw in that "Bird's Nest." The Bird had used "Lawn Chair Stripping's," and "Yarn," Cotton Balls, and even "Dental Floss." 😁
Now, if only more HUMAN GUYS would be as caring and helpful towards raising up their 👶 "HUMAN BABIES," what a better WORLD we'd live in... 😊
That's a great story!
One of the most gorgeous Birds on the planet!
I agree!
I watched a Robin build a nest outside once. What an amazing work of art....she built it for her..right down to putting her wings out to make sure she could protect her babies in the rain. Seriously amazing!
Wow! That is amazing!
@@BirdsWalkingDown One of those spectacular moments, you sometimes get to see!
"Wow," you are so lucky to have seen that @LadyYoop. It amazes Me the things that BIRDS will find on the ground or in dumpsters to build their Nests with. One day, back in (1996) while outside, I was cutting my little niece's HAIR, and I no longer threw some of her hair over to the side "that I had cut," and a BIRD must have been WATCHING us, because the BIRD swooped down and quickly grabbed my niece's HAIR that I had cut off, and my little niece who was around (4 years old at the time) says: "Hey," that Bird just took my Hair.

But, I couldn't believe what all we saw in that "Bird's Nest." The Bird had used "Lawn Chair Stripping's," and "Yarn," Cotton Balls, and even "Dental Floss." I painted a pretty Birdhouse to put out onto my Apartment Patio, so hopefully I will get a Birdy to live in it. There's two different trees below my Apartment Balcony that has "Birds" in a Nest. One is a "Morning Dove," and I'm not sure what the other one is directly below my Apartment, but I love hearing it chirp and song all day and night long, and even into the early Morning hours, so I'm wondering if it's a Nightingale or a Robin.
🥰
Blue in nature is absolutely stunning.
Yes it is!
This reminds me alot of God's love for us. See how mother bird cracked the eggs without hurting anyone of them😢...what we go through in life may crack us, but it's for a phase, not meant to destroy us❤❤❤
Thank you for watching
Real talk, birds are some of the hardest things to photograph.
Does take a lot of patience ;)

What about ghosts
❤
Such a beautiful bird…
no wonder they’re the “blue bird” of happinesses☺️ I wish these loveliest of birds lived in my area of the US… 💙I love this vidieo💙
Thank you
Coisa mais linda amo ver como fazem seus próprios ninhos❤❤
This is beautiful to see. We have a bird house in our backyard and some blue birds moved in. It's been pretty special watching them feed and protect their babies. From egg to adolescent. They all moved out today. I'm glad they grew up safely.
That is awesome!
@@BirdsWalkingDown yes
We had song birds in our front yard and we were always happy to hear them chirp and watch the mom feed them but unfortunately today we found some of the nest on the ground and we think a predator came and got the babies we are super sad 😢
Both parents work so hard to raise the baby's birds just like human beings.
Agreed!
so sweet seeing the daddy bird help!
Yes it is!
I know, @AshBear2008, that's so AMAZING to see the "Daddy Bird" be so caring and helpful in building his "Love Nest" with the "Momma Bird," and how he goes and gets Food for her "while she's protecting the Eggs," and then how he also helps tend and feed their Babies... Now, if only more HUMAN GUYS would be as caring and helpful towards raising up their "HUMAN BABIES," what a better WORLD we'd live in... 😊
Over the years I have noticed that most of the song birds, the ones that sing the most always seem to have very clean nests. I enjoyed watching this video 🙂👍
Interesting! Thank you
Soooo interesting . . . thank you very much!
Remember that God loves you and made the birds for you to enjoy along with enjoying Him too! 🙂
Thank you for watching!
Amen, @ronflorence3470... 😇 I so LOVE watching Awesome Nature Videos like this of GOD'S Beautiful Created 🐦 Blue Birds (and other Birds)... It truly "AMAZES" Me "that a Bird with only a Beak and Two small Claws can build such a neat Bird's Nests, and, it's also so super 🥰 Sweet "to see both the "Momma Bird" and the "Daddy Bird" both Helping Build their "Love Nest" together and how both of them also help Tend to their Babies...😊
Beautiful story of babies being born and loved.
We agree!
Absolutely spellbinding. The parents and the babies are all so chatty! The muted subtle colours of the female, and the vivid electric blue of the male are exquisite. Loved this Lesley. Thankyou.
Thank you!
@@BirdsWalkingDown Oops! Apologies. I didn't pay attention to detail. My bad. I thought the video was by Leslet the Bird Nerd. I loved though, whoever put it all together.
@@BirdsWalkingDown to 😅😊
@@BirdsWalkingDown😮
Awww! Five healthy babies! What a lovely family! Thank you for providing a nice and well thought out house for them- and sharing this experience with us!🙂👍
Happy you liked it!
Such a good mom I love her
She is a great mom!
What kind of a world would we have if humans had this same work ethic, this kind of attention to detail, and this kind of devotion to each other, and to their children that these beautiful little birds have? I'm gonna bet my dollar that if we did half as good as these birds, the quality of life on this earth would improve exponentially.
........and we call them "dumb animals".
They are beautiful little birds!
We live very comfortable lives of luxury surrounded by life improving technology because of human work ethic and human ingenuity. I think we put ourselves down too much.
These baby bluebirds have mastered the art of cuteness! I mean, I can barely handle my own responsibilities, and here they are, being adorable professionals at being baby birds. Someone get them a tiny diploma or something! #hrtearth

Thank you for watching!
なんと素晴らしいことか！。親鳥がせっせと餌を与える光景は生き物の生命力を感じさせる美しい光景だ！。それにしても、親鳥の青色の鮮明な色鮮やかさが引き立つ美しさに只々見とれてしまいました。素晴らしい動画配信ありがとう。
Thank you very much
Great movie. Beautyfull birds 😊
Many thanks
Amazing that the nest is pure instinct... just felt compelled to bring bits of grass inside and arrange them into a cozy nest.
It is amazing
Mother nature is beautiful. Birds work so hard to make nest. I live in northern AZ and see amazing shit happening in the wild.
They do work hard!
We had bluebirds build a nest with the long pine needles here in the Southeast too. They raised 4 eggs/chicks. Then the pair laid 5 more eggs with the 4 older siblings helping out to bring food etc. We provided water and mealworms throughout.
That's awesome!
We had 2 successful clutches this season. We read that the next box needed to be cleaned out immediately after they fledged. Sure enough, within 2 weeks they were building another next, all the while dad fed the fledgings. At about the time the 2nd clutch hatched, the first fledglings became scarce and dad fed the 2nd brood. The first brood were well fed and matured nicely.
Awesome!
Just love those bluebirds!! So nice to see this video. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it
Very cool.
Thank you!
So cute! I'm watching the 3rd clutch this year, and they are so cute!
Awesome!
I sometimes find bluebird shells outside when walking my dog. Mom and dad keep their nest clean. That was lovely. I needed that today. ❤️✌️🐦
I glad you enjoyed it
The bird
Is
Very
Hardwarking
They are hardworking!
Wonderful! I've had a blue bird house in my backyard for 8 years now, they have multiple clutches each season, but I've never seen it from this angle! I'm really glad the House Wren that popped in at 1:52 didn't decide to come back after the eggs were laid and poke holes in them.
That is awesome! I'm glad the House Wren didn't come back also! Thank you for watching
@@BirdsWalkingDown Can such things be prevented? How do birds guard against this??
@@zeebest1004 After the last egg is laid, the Mama will usually be with them until they hatch.
Blue birds are pretty aggressive. They fiercely defend the nest. Dad was probably defending on the outside.
This is so precious, sweet baby angels
Thank you for watching!
That was absolutely splendid, thank you for putting this out, it's just precious!
Glad you enjoyed it!
❤❤ LOOK LITE❤❤❤
Thank you!
What beautiful looking birds!
I think so too!
These are amazing videos for one reason I’m blind well legally blind the only way I will ever be able to see a bird is on UA-cam with close-up zooming I am so happy to be able to see them. Thank you so much.
Glad you like them!
Absolutely beautiful in this seemingly cold-hearted world
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I had bluebirds nest in my box twice already this year and both times the babies fledged and are all over my yard now. Florida
That is sweet!
Cute and the other people who are going through go beautiful😍✨❤
Thank you for watching
We good morning has been good so far just got a variety t👍👍👍👍👍
Good morning 👍👍👍👍👍👍😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for watching
Какие нарядные птички,
Как ловко делают гнездышко.а яйца под стать
Им,такие же яркие.
Thank you for watching
The most beautiful part is during nest making.. they take in harder stuff to fill the nest, but softer stuff for their eggs
Yes they do!
Thanks and its Amazing to watch, The architects and engineers the birds how they build and then how they feed the tiny ones,
Thank you for watching!
To survive in this world, everyone has to work hard....and animals and birds are more understandable than humans...
These are great Bluebird parents!
Feeding life not sucking the life out of life & seems to be the way to go . Wow what a natural teacher for a human even animals have something to teach 😊👍⭐️
Thank you for watching
Hoping to see them fledged out of box from inside.. have a Blue bird trail started on my country street ..what joy.
That's awesome
Wow wonderful video ❤
Thank you
THE CUTE BIRDS I CANT BREATH
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for showing me more about all the different types of beautiful birds. Really looking forward to seeing all the different little birdies!! 🐦❤️
Thank you!
I always pictured the mothers remaining in the nest, for however long, until all the eggs were laid. Very educational. Thanks so much Ioved it.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it
Merci pour ces magnifiques images. On dirait des merles bleus. Tous en bonne santé. Les deux parents attentifs. C'est très beau !
Thank you!
They're GORGEOUS!!!WHAT ARE THEY??
Eastern Bluebirds :)
Blue eggs are amazing, only seen white eggs before
Robin eggs are blue also
We have had araucana chickens that laid blue and green eggs 🪺
Great Video!!
Awesome Job!
Thank you
That is awesome! I have a BLINK camera in two of my nesting boxes, guess I'm going to have to figure out how to combine the videos - thank you so much for sharing!
Go for it!
Just incredible. Thank you!
Thank you too!
Fantastic
Thank you
Дуже задоволена що відкрила для себе Ваш канал, отримую масу емоцій, які вони милі.
Thank you!
Even a bird knows how to provide for his family. Take note humans. Great vid
Thank you!
This was absolutely amazing. We have a robins nest on our deck and I was curious how birds build them. I watched a few other videos but this one is by far the best! Amazing job capturing this! Thank you!
Thank you so much!
OMG! I'm simply amazed at watching these beautiful blue birds!! I'm in awe over nature and how amazing this is to watch!! I would love to see more videos about these amazing events.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanku! I'm still watching this, can't get over how fascinating this is. I would appreciate it if someone could please help me out, see more videos please. Thanks again for the video about these amazing blue birds. 🐦
A beautiful family
Yes they are
I saw one of these on my balcony with the mother sitting on the nest she made by using my dead indoor plants that i threw outside. The newborns are soo cute some of them already have their mother blue skin. I love that she's not afraid of me when i stand there watching her 😂 it's like she knows I won't hurt her. Nature is amazing!
That's awesome. Thank you for sharing
So pretty!!!
Thank you!!
That was awesome

Yes they do!
Wow this video really did well. Good for you 😊
Thank you Lesley!! 😊 I don't know why it starting do well this year. It had been out for over 6 months before it did much
@@BirdsWalkingDown that happens to my videos too. The first nest box video from 2021 didn't take off until spring of the following year lol. Whatever the reason, it is well deserved that your video did so well. Here's to more 🥰
Thankyou love the bluebird babies.
Thank you!
This is an amazing video. Love it. Thank you for sharing 💙
Thank you so much!
आप ने ये घोंसला लगाकर अच्छा काम किया मुझे वीडियो अच्छा लगा ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for watching!
I wish we had Bluebirds in Europe...very beautiful little birds! The nest and eggs are similar to our Flycatchers nests and eggs
I don't the Flycatchers. Thank you for watching
Magnificent!
Thank you!
Qué hermoso video, que bella y perfecta es la naturaleza...❤
Thank you so much!
Best thing to watch on UA-cam!!!
Thank you for you nice words!
Aww, thank you for taking this video of me and my family! I will cherish it always. 💙
Funny. You're welcome
@@BirdsWalkingDown ☺
I have a pair nest in my box right now. I'm super excited!
That is awesome!
Saya sangat senang sekali melihat vidio ini mulai dari membuat sarang kemudian bertelur sampai telurnya menetas dan anaknya lahir semua dan induknya rajin membawakan makan keseluruh anaknya
Awesome! Thank you for watching!
Gracias por este reporte de los pajaritos Y Creacion Animal nos alegran la vida.
Thank you for watching!
Love this ❤🐦
Glad you liked it! Thank you
😅🤕🤬😈🥶👿👿❤
We had the nest box out all year through 2023. We didn't have any bluebirds go beyond their inspection of the bluebird box from you. I think the translucent panel makes the nest too bright for them. I understand that facilitates better video, but they show a strong preference for bird boxes without that light-emitting panel. Would you suggest painting that panel to make it darker for them? Or just let it ride through another season? Thanks for all you do, and for sharing your excellent videos.
Before I made 3d printed doors, I tried plexiglass, which was definitely a problem since the Bluebirds could see through it. And I have seen birds inspect the 3d printed door, but I can't tell that it has stopped them from nesting. I have had several successful nest with the 3d printed door. And I know of other folks with my box that have also. If you would like a wooden door, I can send it to you? Just let me know the dimensions. Thank you for your kind words about my videos
OMG! SO GORGEOUS N PRESCIOUS!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Super nice video, really enjoy it, thank you !
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video. Perfect for a biology class
Glad you think so!
A timestamp would be made this time lapse perfect 🙂
I do have chapters. What do you mean by timestamp?
@@BirdsWalkingDown The date and times on the video 🙂. I didn't notice your "chapters" in the description, just looking the vid. That's why I wrote it would be nice to integrate the timestamps directly on the video.
Thank you for the suggestion
This was awesome! Thanks for making this!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love it
Thank you!
amazing video birds ❤❤❤ cute birds verry funny and Amazing ❤❤ thank you for sharing video ❤❤ i really like your video so much
