Description
This is a male Eastern Bluebird (Sialia sialis) enjoying the Autumn berries on a misty November morning in Connecticut. Blue birds can often be seen sitting on fence posts watching for insects on the ground. They will jump down, pick up the insect and return to their post. While it's more difficult to find them sitting in the bushes eating berries, patience does pay off. They can and do eat berries!
This photograph won first place in the "Photography Only" group's March Featured Group member contest in February 2016; and second place in the contest for December 2015 Featured Photographer in the same FAA Group. This photograph also won third place in the "Autumn Fruits" contest in December 2015. Thank you to all those who voted!
