I think this is a female Eastern bluebird, but can't find any pictures that look quite like this one. The male shows up in the same places, and the blue tail, rufus breast and white belly are similar to the bluebird. Or is this some other species?

We have lots of them in North Carolina. I've always called them bluebirds, but have never been sure.

Looks like a bluebird to me as well.

Thanks Dave, Andrew. After I posted this I found one hanging around on my roof with a male bluebird. She's guilty by association if nothing else. :)
