A Case of the Backyard Blues

While relaxing on the  sun porch this past weekend, I caught a glimpse of blue in the tree.

Bluebird5

I grabbed my camera and was able to catch this bluebird in flight.

Bluebird8

I like the contrast of the blue against the lime green.

Mr. Bluebird had to squeeze in through the small hole.     It was rather amusing to watch.

Bluebird7

He stayed in there for a minute and then out he came.   I didn’t realize until  later that a waxwing photobombed the picture.  Do you see him in the upper left hand corner?

Thank you for visiting today!

   The bluebirds and I will be nesting at A Southern Daydreamer.

I love your bird house! My dad makes birdhouses. Do you know where yours came from? This looks like his style. If it's signed on the back it's his!

That;s a very cute bird house, and the color is just bright and attractive!

I like the third photo and the last photo of the bird and the birdhouse. Great job!

Wonderful pictures. That bluebird has great taste in his choice of a birdhouse. Such a pretty birdhouse, who could resist. I got a chuckle out of the photobombing waxwing.I hadn't seen him in the picture at first because I was too busy looking at the bluebird and pretty birdhouse. I thought you meant something else with "photobombing" 'til I looked back at the picture.
