An eastern bluebird perched on one of the top branches of a tree, framed by green leaves against a light blue sky. The bird shows off its blue back, dark eyes, and rusty-orange underpart
A wood pigeon perched on the top branch of a tree, looking to the right against a brilliant steel blue sky. Bright sunlight illuminates the side facing the camera, while some tiny dried fruits hang from the sub-branches below.
A blue jay perched on a thin branch of a leafless tree, with another tree's large green leaves in the background. The bird shows off bold black barring on its wings and tail, a white face and underparts, and a distinctive black necklace around its neck. Its upper parts are bright blue.
A northern mockingbird perched on a thin branch, facing the camera and looking to the right. The backdrop is light blue sky with many other bare branches. The bird's underparts are white, while its head and back are light grey.
