My bluebirds are eating and taking the Fluker's crickets to their babies. Doesn't look like they are as excited about the dead/frozen crickets as they are the mealworms, but they are eating them.
I have them on a platform about 4 feet off the ground in the flight pattern of the martins.
I also put a martin decoy on the feeder.
Will be fun to see if the martins will get the idea from the bluebirds that we have crickets here.
The dragonflies are plentiful now, and martin babies only 1 day old, so didn't bother trying to toss crickets.
