The Bluebirds in my boxes raised 10 clutches this year, down from 15 last year. I see many of them on the powerlines and hitting the mealworms. The early Spring/late freeze aborted two clutches that I know of, and I had more pressure from House Sparrows this year than last.
Two clutches of Tree Swallows, too. Two pair raised young. They only have one clutch a year, though a pair attempted a second this year, but it didn't happen.

They nest alot in my yard but like you said they often nest and the boxes get taken over by sparrows. I have seen myself put up a bluebird house and have the bluebirds bringing nesting materials to it within 20 minutes it is amazing. The sparrows are a constant pest to them though.
