A few days ago while looking out the kitchen window I saw not one but three brilliantly colored bluebirds! It is not the normal time of the year for them to visit our yard, so perhaps they were immigrating south for the winter.

By the time I retrieved my camera only one bluebird was still there…guess he needed a bath before continuing his trip!
What color inspiration for a creation of art!…What life inspiration for a day of encouragement.

Indeed, Joni, I find there IS no greater encouragement for me than similar serendipitous sightings in nature! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing!

You’re welcome…and I think I can see why they are sometimes called “the bluebirds of happiness”!

Gorgeous! I’ve never seen bluebirds in my yard. I so miss the hummingbirds, however, as they left in mid October. We do have a family of blue jays that come every morning for peanuts.

We’ve not had many either…hummingbirds are really neat to watch for sure. While a bit noisy at times, I love the color and personality of the blue jays too!

Not sure I’ve ever seen a bluebird, having been born and raised in Maui. Pretty positive I’ve not even seen one these last 30+ years living on both coasts of the mainland. Blue jays, yes…bluebirds, no. So thanks lots for sharing…
and for visiting my blog and leaving a comment…hugs…hugmamma. 🙂

Blue jays are what I’ve commonly seen too. Maybe bluebirds are seen more often in the mountains?–I’m not sure. And, you’re welcome!
