A thirsty Bluebird

I like these Bluebirds and have several nesting boxes around. This first one dropped by for a bit of water. The second one needed a bite to eat.
Both shot thru a dirty kitchen window with the 6d mark II and Canon 100-400L, and cropped big. Post work in LR6. Enjoy!

Good work! Shot through a window yet! You took pictures that make viewers happy to look at! And lucky you that you have bluebirds around. (I see that you give them meal worms. I do too! That's their favorite food.) -- Jackie

My favorite bird. We had so many of them on our farm in Michigan. I miss them. These captures are lovely. Thanks for sharing.

I briefly looked into doing that...may have to revisit. Those little boogers can get expensive!
