Some people are lucky enough to have Eastern Bluebirds (Sialia sialis) spend the winter feeding at their home, nibbling on mealworms and other goodies put out by caring birders. Did I say that with as little jealousy as possible? I hope so. The rest of us have to wait until March for the species to start making a move towards the north, and soon you will be able to enjoy views like this one as our days continue to get longer and brighter. I remember taking this photo on a particularly cold day, with the lion-like wind battering me, but we can pretend it was a temperate and calm, lamb-like March afternoon.
