Cartão Postal Bluebird Bliss

Watercolour painting by Brazen Edwards-Hager The male Mountain Bluebird is a breathtaking brilliant sky blue. After working the fence line for some time, the Mountain Bluebird may disappear over the next ridge or clump of trees, leaving behind a soft warbling song. One of the neatest things is that they will sometimes obtain their food by hovering in the air a metre or more above the ground in a hawk-like manner, as it searches the earth below for food. No other member of the thrush family does this so it's quite a sight to see!
