Western Bluebird in a hover (1 Viewer)

I've seen lots of Western Bluebirds, but yesterday was the first time I saw this.

The bird was silhouetted against the sun, so I didn't know what it was until I viewed the image. I was pretty amazed to see a passerine hunting the same way as a tern, kestrel or kite. That was pretty cool. I hope to capture it in better light someday.
