I kept wondering why I never saw a bluebird. Ever. Not here or in New York. And I know they live here. But this morning I got up and looked out my back windows and the deck was full of bluebirds!
A good sign for Thanksgiving, isn’t it? Here are some of them.

I’ve never seen birds of that color scheme before. I’ve seen a blue jay, but not that blue and orange look. I guess I always assumed bluebirds were just blue.

The Blue Bunting is solid blue, even a little darker than the Bluebird. I’ve seen lots of pictures of bluebirds but never seen one in the feather before. You always see them in children’s books, but a flock on my deck was very lovely.

How lovely, what a nice surprise. I’ve never seen one. I don’t think we have them but we do have the lovely blue fairy-wrens. I used to see them in the garden sometimes in Geeveston and since arriving here have been delighted to spot some hopping around in the back garden. As soon as I get a chance I’m going to start doing some backyard bird watching as we have a lot of trees in the garden.

It was the first time I saw a bluebird that wasn’t a picture in a book. A great photo moment 🙂

Marilyn, I think that’s your holiday treat from the Big guy and/or Mother Nature.

I was very thoughtful of them to come here today. And it was a flock of them, not just one or two. And they are beautiful too.
