Why a blue bird on a fence? I say “why not!”

What a sweet photo. I always love seeing blue birds because they are my mom’s favorite. And your title reminds me of an old Goldie Hawn movie. I’m gonna have to go dig it out and watch it now!

Tim,
I have a post about colors and I mentioned a bluebird. When I saw your post, I linked to it. Mine will be posted later today. Great minds think alike. 😉

Great shot of the Western Bluebird. In the 70’s and 80’s I had an Eastern Bluebird nesting box project that I managed on my own. Had about 50 plus boxes in several rural areas. No one took over my project when I returned to work but it did incease the bluebirds for awhile.

  Thank you Poppy. When I took the picture I didn’t like the fence. Later, I looked at it again and I really liked the fence. A happy accident!

  I had not heard that before. Will the sparrows kill young bluebirds?

    Non-native House Sparrows have very hard beaks compared to our native birds and will kill Bluebirds, Purple Martins & other native birds for food / lodging. I stopped feeding them and hung native appropriate feeders to try to lessen their presence in my yard. Better to visit this link, http://michiganbluebirds.org/problem-solving , than the youtube video I just watched of a sparrow killing a BB and dumping the body out of the hole. Sad. =-(
