Answer:

Option A: True

Step-by-step explanation:

Insectivorous birds such as bluebirds, dippers and flycatchers prefer to eat medium-sized insects. This is because like most birds, they love easy and satisfying meals. To the birds, a medium-sized insect is a good compromise because it is quite easy to chew and digest and at the same time, easy to find.

As a result, most insectivorous birds prefer to get their daily ration of proteins from the medium-sized birds.
