Blue birds

Most of the country drives during an eastern North American summer will turn up a few Eastern Bluebirds sitting on telephone wires or perched atop a nestbox,calling out in a short,wavering voice or abruptly dropping to the ground after an insect. Marvelous birds to capture in your binoculars, male eastern  Blue birds are a brilliant royal blue on the back and head, and warm red  red-brown on  the breast . Blue tiges in the wings and tail give the grayer females an elegant look.
