One of those birds that have to be seen to be believed! This is the Western Australian subspecies, that has this magnificent deep blue color. 
Fairywrens are always great to see and I was very happy to get a few shots while giving a talk in Perth last year.

I hope everyone is safe and sound!

Such a gorgeous colour, and couple that with this perky little wren posed so sweetly - end result, a beautiful image, Jan!
