Hello World! — Western Bluebird

Hello World! — Western Bluebird (Sialia mexicana)

This juvenile Western Bluebird visited me today and took a dip in the bath. I hesitate to guess the gender as the girls and boys look much alike at this young age. I hope she/he avoids danger and lives long and prospers. Good luck.
