I had errands to run most of the day today. I am behind on many things. I was out watering the garden just now and out of nowhere was one of the baby bluebirds that fledged back in June. I can tell from the white spots. As he matures, he will be a solid blue. Yes he could be someone else’s bluebird, but I choose to believe he was one born right where he is perched. His bluebird home was on the pole he sits on in my garden. Too funny how he seemed to just appear for a visit. And long enough for me to get a quick shot. This is another reason to always have your camera. I sometimes never see the bluebirds once they fledge. What a welcomed visit. This made my day.

Always love your precious bluebird photos.
You are so kind, thanks for your support LaJenna.
I also live more in the village, so there are so many different birds that only have the problem of taking pictures-more difficult with a mobile phone
And it is hard to get details on a mobile phone, especially of birds.
It’s almost impossible-for birds, you just have to have the camera and it’s good
Right, and like with this photo, I just got lucky to be in the garden at the right time.
Wonderful photo! That’s awesome 🙂 Thank you for sharing 🙂
Thank you so much for your visit and comment Courtney. It was special to see this bluebird.
It’s always a pleasure! I’m always glad to see your photos 🙂 And it definitely sounds like it!
Nice picture. A holiday for our eyes when we watch these free birds in nature, Thank Carol.

Thank you so much Robin. That is how I would describe it as well.
Thank you, Carol. Goodbye to Tennessee.
Only goodbye for now. 🙂
May be I used the wrong word, I’m sorry.
Should be bye and not goodbye. my bad English.
How would you write?
I would write bye for now. Goodbye is more of a permanent bye, like we will never meet again. No reason to apologize. 🙂
I once have bees/was[s coming to make a nest here…
we destroyed it lol
That is not a welcomed visit, glad you were not stung.
One reason that birds come to the backyard is to have meals of leftover food waiting for them to eat.
But I had no leftover food. I believe he came back to where he was born. And there was water nearby.
Okay that is in as I would say “Fair enough.”
As I recall, you got a lot of visits from various animals, especially birds. You and your home are indeed blessed.
Yes I do Albert. I was surprised at this one as it was the first time since the bluebirds fledged.
The love energy there has attracted the bird to visit
When I work in the garden or enjoy the terrace, I often get a pleasant unexpected visit
That is great, so you know how it feels.
We don’t have bluebirds this year, but there are more squirrels than usual. I am also glad to report that the wild turkeys seem to have been moved elsewhere. That is a good thing because they were a great nuisance.
I see turkeys but they stay out at the edge of the land, never any closer. The bluebirds come year round if I keep fresh water out.
My neighbor has a bird bath she keeps filled. But she also has a cat.
sometimes when I am cutting the lawn, butterflies go nuts
I hope you are not cutting their plants down
No, I am trimming the lawn not killing the garden. But apparently cut grass is like catnip for butterflies- they go nuts
