The birds (bluebirds and wrens mostly) are checking out the bird houses that have been distributed throughout the yard. They have a nice selection and seem to be taking their time. Saw this handsome dad-to-be outside my bedroom window looking into the Williamsburg birdhouse that we mounted beneath the deck. I hope they move in, because this will be a nice place for me to watch them raising a family.
It does appears that he is checking out absolutely every bird house and every tree hole for yards around!
What a gorgeous bluebird. Thanks for posting this.
ReplyDeletewow. what a bright and beautiful view...i hope they move in as well so we get more pictures...
ReplyDeletewhat Brian said. I've never seen one in real life.
ReplyDeleteIsn't he gorgeous, Tabor? I love love love the Eastern Bluebirds.. BUT--I have a strange thing going on in my yard: 2 males fighting over 1 female.... Don't think she's chosen one of them yet --but they are both around her constantly!!!! ha

Aren't they just the most beautiful blue, and such sweet birds---I love to hear them chattering, along with the wrens and Tree Sparrows. :) I have a couple more boxes that need to be mounted on posts...HAD to invest in some new condo rental property. :D
ReplyDeleteI have one building a nest in the same house as last year. Wish I could get an image. Your image is beautiful....
ReplyDeleteSuch a brilliant blue! Our bluebirds have returned, too but I'll never get as close to a nesting bird as you will. I hope they nest in the birdhouse beneath your deck too, so I get to share them with you vicariously!
ReplyDeleteWonderful and wonder full!
ReplyDeleteI know if he picks your birdhouse we will all benefit because you will provide a pictorial report of the bluebird family events.
ReplyDeleteoh, I do hope he moves in, too. We get them occasionally around here, but I've never been close enough for a picture or a good look.
