Garden Tuesday - Bluebird

Bluebird


It finally warmed up enough this weekend that I ventured outside to spend some time with my feathered friends.

That is a great photo! I love bluebirds. We see several varieties in Missouri. I guess that is why it is our state bird!

He's beautiful! We don't have those anywhere I've lived in the west. I'll have to look him up in my bird book and find out a little more about them.
Nice picture!

Kat said...

I agree with everyone else. What a wonderful photo. I have bluebirds too and I am cleaning out the boxes now. I better get busy!

Joy said...

Makes me miss Durango and Shanghai.

Great shot! I saw one a couple weekends ago and like always... it brought a smile to my face. Lately, I've beens seeing Robins around here. Not sure if they over winter here or fly off. I should check that out. We've had some really glorious days lately, feels like Spring!

Antoinette said...

Nice shot! What a beautiful reminder that spring is right around the corner. We have been running the AC the last 5 days or so. Never stays cold here for long!

Paula said...

Wow, what a beautiful shot of a real beauty! I'm off to grab my bird book to see what kind it is!

Pam said...

What a great picture. I thought it was warming up here but I woke up to snow this morning.

Susan said...

It's almost spring! Yea!

Tracie said...

noble pig said...

Lucky shot...very nice Pam. It's almost Spring.

Alex said...

Great photo - we don't have those in Britain. Closest we have are Blue Tits. They're really cute despite the name! Alex

Marjie said...

What a delightful bluebird! I'm looking forward to our birdies returning...not that my cardinal doesn't delight me when he comes out!

Natashya said...

Is that the bluebird of happiness?
Or Mr. Bluebird on my shoulder?
Perhaps the cute little guys that help the Disney heroines out of a jam?
I don't think we get them this far north, what a beauty!

Queenie said...
