Blue Beauties

A Mountain Bluebird (40) was perched atop the Sumac tree in our backyard just now. They are regular migrants through Shoreacres. The first year we bought our property (2006) and before we built our home, a pair nested in one of our nest boxes and successfully raised a family. Since then, we have had not any nest here. But there have been times when a dozen or so are flying about catching insects. Mountain Bluebirds do nest in the area.
