Hello, bluebird!

First Eastern Bluebird I have seen at the backyard feeders and birdbath in a long time. I counted three. This is a female, but I didn’t get a good look at the other two. They also checked out the old bluebird house, possibly for winter nighttime roosting potential.

I have seen flocks of bluebirds way out back by the red maple swamp. Also last Friday visiting family in Swarthmore, PA we watched flock after flock of migrating bluebirds pass overhead, an extraordinary sight.
