Eastern Bluebird
This is my first sighting of a Bluebird!! He seemed to be checking out my situation (food, water, habitat) and was eyeing a Wren Nestbox. I wish he would accept it! Regarding the nestbox, we attached it to the shed, close to the Rose of Sharon bushes. But, I didn't realize until today that the opening is open to the North wind...and we had a strong NW wind today :-(
...I think I lost him.

The weather is just awful today.
Overcast, cold, and strong NW winds...whereas yesterday we had
tornadic storms. But, it brought the E. Bluebird and some other little bird moving too fast (the wind helping it along) to be able to ID. I'm hoping it'll come back. It was a bit smaller than the finches with a yellow tummy, bluish on it's back & wings, and a black crest...a very tiny head.

Mom! What a great photo! I love your cute Bunny story as well :)
Nice series Cindy
You have or had a Bluebird, Lucky you
I have never seen one yet...
As for the bunnies... nice shots
Very nice Cindy! That's a Hairy Woodpecker. Take a look at that large bill.
Cindy, What fun to have all that activity and all those visitors in your backyard. And, it's Kansas-what do you expect of the weather!!! The wind has been "ridiculous" the last few days. Much nicer today--like Spring is supposed to be. Have a nice weekend. Mickie :)
Yipppeee for the Bluebird. I hope he returns!
Adorable captures of the bunnies ... enjoying the best eats in town! I hope the blue bird chooses your wren house to nest in .... fingers crossed.
Hairy or Downy? Depends on the size. My guess would be Downey. Cute little guy and nice post!
Thank you all for the nice comments!
Sweet! I love your Cotton Tale. My fingers are crossed that the bluebirds have taken up residence. Wonderful post!
You have wonderful critters in your backyard!!
Thanks for comments Julie and Dawn :-))
