I drove to Bickleton, Washington for some photos of bluebirds. In a few hours I probably saw close to 100 in a 20 square mile area. The male was about the blue-est of the males I could get close to.

Thanks for looking!

Mike

Very nice. I love the way the background complements the colour of the bird in each shot. Lovely :D

These are excellent. They look quite a bit different than the ones we have.
