Like New in Fine jacket.

Arnette Heidcamp introduces their physical description, their range and habitat, their diet while breeding, their postbreeding activity, and their behavior and territoriality. Bluebirds have had to fight for survival. In the last half-century, their population has declined by 90 percent. Arnette tells of the nationwide effort to save them, and her own and others' provision of nesting boxes to keep them from parasites and predators. Also, she furnishes her recipes for feeding them during each season.
