Caterpillars

The trailcam showed the bluebirds were bringing food to the nest, so I deployed the 1DII (camera #9) with 70-200 lens to try to see what they are feeding the chicks that I presume are inside the nest box. A fuzzy caterpillar seems to be a popular choice. The bluebirds have been eating the mealworms I have set out, but I'm thinking they don't give those to the chicks because they're aren't very juicy. Just a guess. I shot some images with remote trigger and some with motion trigger, didn't really keep track of which was which. The last image is a bluebird taking a rest on my motion trigger device. I took it with #9 and a 500mm lens. Don't poop on the equipment, please.
