Female Eastern Bluebird (I think). We do not see them often here. I had to shoot through a bunch of branches.

Nice shot Bill. It is indeed a female Eastern Bluebird. We've got Bluebirds that have raised several broods a year in our yard for the last 7 years. It's a joy to watch.

Great shot. We had no hatchlings last year. (Cat trouble I think)

Thanks for the comment, acajun. I believe that cats rank bluebirds high on their list of favorite meals.

Such a cutie, Bill. Wish I could have them here but waaaaaaaay too many HOSPs for safety.
