Bluebirds Are Here Year Round

In Virginia, Eastern Bluebirds (Sialia sialis) are here year round. They’ll occasionally roam from one location to another in search of their favorite fruits or berries in large groups. A behavior that makes me think of American Robins and Cedar Waxwings. Wandering to find their preferred foods.

I must get busy and clean out their houses. They’ll be shopping around for a place to build their nests soon. Egg laying begins late February into March which will be here in a flash.
