Eastern Bluebird (Sialia sialis)

BLUE is a somewhat uncommon color in birds, but this species not only boldly wears blue, but contrasts it with some sparky RED!

Strange how some people say they are “feeling blue” and then go looking for “the bluebird of happiness”.

See if this one can cheer your day:
