Blue Birds Everywhere

Bluebirds Everywhere
Have you noticed all the bluebirds this year? Maybe it is just me, but everywhere I go, I keep seeing them. We were blessed this Summer with at least three families of bluebirds that had multiple clutches. At one point, it seemed every time I looked out any of my windows, there they were!
As I write this, I am watching the bluebirds watch me. Not really, but it seems like they are. They love to sit on the old wooden fence until more of their friends join them, and then they all start flying around. It is like they are jumping on the fence post.
A KODAK Moment
When I go to my mother’s, there they are! And now, as my husband and I take our morning walks in the park, we see so many. So, of course, I have to stop and take pictures of each as we wander by. Typically we see them on the backstop of the baseball field, but the other day there were about 6 of them on the roof of one of the pavilions. I took over 30 pictures, but this one I am sharing is perfect. He was sitting on the corner of that green roof, and I waited until he looked right at me. Then, as I clicked to capture the moment, off, he flew! Darn it! But then later, I saw what I caught—this beautiful splash of color as he took off to join his friends.
This week, I will say I am thankful that I still can take a walk in the park with my husband. The bonus is that my camera seems to take those perfect “KODAK moments.” (Those of you over a certain age will understand the reference.) So, hopefully, you have time to get out and enjoy this beautiful Fall season we are having, and if you are lucky, a bluebird or two will cross your path.
