Mr. Bluebird




Besides being one of our favorites, the Eastern Bluebird is also the state bird of Missouri.




After a morning bath, he shakes vigorously.




He cleans up pretty good, don't you think?




This male air-dries in the dogwood tree.  

When the berries ripen, it looks like he'll have plenty to eat.

Bluebird Memories







The bluebird house outside our bedroom window has new occupants these days, 
and the male has found a suitable perch nearby. 

Have you noticed how strongly fragrances evoke memories?  
This bird house is on an oak tree above a fragrant patch of Sir Winston Churchill daffodils, 
and the little ones will probably be imprinted for life.

What could be sweeter?
