Female and male eastern bluebirds in the morning hours.
This is the view from my office window. I love watching the birds in the morning. They seem to be very active in the early morning and then slow down about 11am. Maybe it is nesting time. I don’t know but it suddenly gets quiet.
The bluebird box in the picture is probably about 7 years old and has raised several families. I have never witnessed the launch of the babies (mainly because I am too impatient) but after the launch I know they are gone because they sit close by in the trees for a few days.
Our house is up for sale now and this bluebird box will go with us when we move. It’s not that I couldn’t get another but I just enjoy knowing that this box has been at two homes with us and will go to the next and continue raising more families.
Here’s a another photo I took later in the afternoon of the male. He is sooooo beautiful!
This is actually a half-way decent picture. This is not normal for me!
I hope you enjoy my pictures as much as I enjoy taking them. If you do, send me some love in the form of a comment!
Thanks for looking!


Love the photos of these bluebirds and I am more than sure these guys will find a new home somewhere else! Bluebirds are good about that! You probably have some neighbors with boxes up also! Keep up the great work and loved looking at some of your older post! I love the wrens and woodpecker shots! Keep up the great work! Takes time but more people will start commenting as they find you! You should join the Nature Blog Network and that will help in others finding your site!
Monarch, Thanks for the kind comments and stopping by. I will definitely check out the Nature Blog Network.
