A lovely image of this hard working parent Donny.

I've got another bluebird family starting so it looks like its a good year for them.

Great detail and behaviour, Donny; I reckon you'll see yourself in that eye in the original image ;)

Whew! Looks like s/he could use a rest. Of course, feeding and guarding continues for a while even after they leave the nest, maybe even more work than before once they're mobile :S Good luck to the wee family and thanks for this superb shot |=)|
