What a great find, Sandy! Not only three Bluebirds, but three nice poses all with good eye contact. Would love to hear the story behind this image. Well done!

Nothing but patience and good luck here - on my stepson's property near Mt Shasta. It's open fields and oak trees, and there are lots of bluebirds, acorn woodpeckers, and other birdlets. These 3 are probably siblings, as they were flying together  and rummaging around for bugs all morning, and coming back to approximately the same place on the fence. 
Set up a chair, watch, and wait!   :)
