The Winter Circuit: Why Bluebirds Need More Than Bird Boxes A new 2-acre urban park in my neighborhood has taught me an important lesson about wildlife habitat.

The birds will always need more from us...bc we took so much away...every little bit a human does helps a little...or help a life🐦 survive another night...

In the top left of the photo frame, a male eastern bluebird perched on the rim of a bowl bird-feeder is eating seeds from the bowl. In the right-bottom of the photo frame, a female bluebird is perched on the top rail of a deck and looking on. The backdrop is trees with some dry yellowish-red leaves and some green leaves.

This eastern bluebird couple was at our bird-feeders yesterday. This was our first time ever seeing them in our backyard. Beautiful birds!

A bird is perched on a branch, facing the camera with its head turned to the left in the photo frame. The bird has a reddish-brown breast with white spots and patches, and a blue head. The tree branches in the photo extend mostly from right to left across the frame, with some branches bearing dry leaves that have that characteristic fall look. The background is a clear, bright-blue sky.

A bird perches on a branch extending diagonally from the lower right to the upper left of the frame. Its back and head display darkish blue, while the breast shows a warm brownish-red that transitions to a white belly. The bird faces right, set against a backdrop of leafy branches and a pale blue sky.

Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme, per Alan (@alan678.bsky.social), is #Thrushes. The alternative: #waders.

Here are a couple of photos of eastern bluebirds which I just learnt are part of the thrush bird family.

The Last Word of a Bluebird. 

Robert Frost 1874 – 1963

As I went out a Crow
In a low voice said, “Oh,
I was looking for you.
How do you do?
I just came to tell you
To tell Lesley (will you?)
That her little Bluebird
Wanted me to bring word
That the north wind last night
That made the stars bright
And made ice on the trough
Almost made him cough
His tail feathers off.
He just had to fly!
But he sent her Good-by,
And said to be good,
And wear her red hood,
And look for skunk tracks
In the snow with an ax—
And do everything!
And perhaps in the spring
He would come back and sing.”

Early evening photo of a male Eastern Bluebird perched on a dark wire fence against a smooth, chocolate-brown blurred background. His cobalt-blue head and wings shine in the light, contrasting with his warm rust-orange chest and pale belly.

Rust can be striking
Just like lovely cobalt blue
