Flying Bluebird



"Flying Bluebird"
This photograph is from the "Bluebird Project" Collection. 

**********
Springtime only means one thing in the bird world, and that is that it is time to reproduce.  The eastern bluebird is no exception, and they are a fun pair to watch during this time.

The bluebirds form a pair bond when both the male and female enter a nesting cavity in late winter.  From that time on, they make their plans to parent a new brood.  Before mating, the male will often bring the female a choice insect as the last step of the mating ritual.

Typically, a bluebird pair will have between one to two broods.  My nesting pair seems to always try a second brood in summer, but it is often a failed nest.

As I was viewing my photographs from a session, I came across this image of a female bluebird leaving her nest cavity.  As she exited, she looked right into my camera, making this a unique image.
