I only see a couple of Bluebirds now and then but I have a yard full of gold finches!
I did get a photo of one of the bluebirds that visited my yard last year:

My bluebirds never took to mealworms, but they love sunflower hearts. They frequent my deck feeder full of sunflower hearts (as do other birds and squirrels, so be forewarned). We've had a breeding pair in our bluebird box over the past decade, and love seeing the babies after they hatch.

We get bluebirds, along with all sorts of other interesting birds.

I bought an Eliminator at Wild Birds Unlimited a few years ago.
The squirrels have pretty much given up. It really is "squirrel proof."
Pricey, but the Bird seed goes to the Birds...

A couple of suet baskets draws them too.

Now is the time to get the Blue Bird houses cleaned out and ready. As cold as February is that is when they start picking out where they will do their thing.

Pine Siskins have now showed up at mealworm feeder. They’re on the ground under the feeder eating what the Bluebirds drop.
