Description
Spring is Springing!! Let the nesting season begin!!! A male Eastern bluebird is seen caring nesting materials to begin the fabulous, and hopefully busy, nesting season. His lovely melody to attract the lovely female eastern bluebird is heard early in the morning. Eastern Bluebirds can have one to three broods a year. A brood is bird talk for number of times the bluebirds lay eggs and they hatch, similar to a cat or dog litter.

This is a beautiful photo! I love birds and because I live in Maine all the birds fly South for the Winter. It is always great joy for me when I hear all the birds return when warm weather arrives!
