Not many birds out today weather moved in more snow... but I did get a bluebird. I normally call these mountain bluebirds but after looking at the book I think its either a western bluebird or an eastern bluebird.

Lighting was really bad sorry not the greatest picture.

man you guys are awesome.... I forgot to add it was making 3 chirps then bouncing up and down. I thought it was a warning but it would then fly to another branch and do it again a few times and fly off to more trees and do it.

As always, great photos, and great behaviour descriptions!

We all can learn from your example here!
