fledgling Bluebird on ground - Hancock

[Steve Smith]

Our dog was trying to get at something on the other side of her dog yard fence - I was very surprised to discover it was a fledgling Bluebird. the bird seems healthy and can run around but can’t fly yet - when I investigated, I was repeatedly dive bombed by the parents. I will keep our dogs out of their dog yard just in case the fledgling crosses into the dog side. It seems very early for a Bluebirds fledging. This is very close to a bluebird house that I know there is a bluebird nest in.
