If You’re Feeling Blue Try Painting Yourself A Different Color

Eastern Bluebird

What starts with a P, ends with an E, and has a million letters in it?

Post Office!

Interesting Fact: The male Eastern Bluebird displays at his nest cavity to attract a female. He brings nest material to the hole, goes in and out, and waves his wings while perched above it. That is pretty much his contribution to nest building; only the female Eastern Bluebird builds the nest and incubates the eggs.  ( https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Eastern_Bluebird/lifehistory )

  1. Do you happen to know the difference in this bird and an indigo bunting? The look similar and we have two in our neighborhood in florida right now. Beautiful picture

    • Yes they are quite similar but indigo bunting are more blue. That’s amazing that you have two of them in your neighborhood. I haven’t came across one yet hopefully soon. Thank you very much for stopping by and sharing with us. Happy Blogging! 🙂

  2. I love factoids – he is saying “come and see my etchings” … she falls for it and has to build the nest and raise the kids. Sigh … a woman’s work is never done it seems! 🙂

  3. I am so happy with this post. I am hoping to come across the bluebird but haven’t as of yet. Fingers crossed I do this spring.

    • Thank you very much, and I’m sure you will come across one soon. I appreciate you stopping by and checking out my post. Happy Blogging! 🙂
