I don't normally post blurry pictures, but the two of them sitting so close together just looked so special--too bad the auto focus "chose" to focus on the background.
Recreating a native habitat has been a dream of mine since I was about 18. It only took me 20 years, but I finally have two acres of land in the country with which to work (and play). My goal is to document the improvements I make to the property: restoring habitat & attracting birds and butterflies in addition to other wildlife.

The Bluebirds are Back!
I was out in the yard taking pictures when I spotted a pair of birds on the wires. It was getting near dusk and they were backlit against the sky, but even with my naked eye, I felt pretty sure they were bluebirds. Thanks to the pictures, I was able to verify that they really are back. Looks like a pair to me.

Hey, that's great! It must be a relief to see them together and that the female is ok. Maybe they just needed a little vacation before they go back to work!
Thanks, Julie. It was pretty great seeing the pair back in our yard. I'd like to believe it is the same female, but I really have no way of knowing.
I keep thinking that I'd better get a water feature built, so I can see the fledglings come to drink and bathe--tht way I'll know that there was some success!
