One overcast day last week, I was looking out my backdoor when a burst of vivid blue caught my eye...



When I spotted this cute little guy, of course I ran for my camera and big ole zoom lens...



(Couldn't resist sticking in that puffy, butt shot...pardon me...)



I followed him around the backyard just a bit...



And captured him enjoying a bite of lunch...

The Western Bluebird  is a small thrush, approximately 5.9 in to 7.1 in in length.

Adult males are bright blue on top and on the throat with an orange breast and sides, a brownish patch on back, and a gray belly and undertail coverts. Adult females have a duller blue body, wings, and tail than the male, a gray throat, dull orange breast, and a gray belly and undertail coverts. Immature Western Bluebirds have duller colors than the adults, they also have spots on their chest and back.


Happy Anniversary Grammy and Pop-pop!
