We had two Eastern Blue Birds on the power lines this morning. This is a first for the Aerie. We've seen them down the hill a few times in the spring and summer months. This pair disappeared before I could get the camera out. I'm guessing they were flocking with the Goldfinches and merely followed them when they headed for the feeders. They did not look happy with the temperatures or my food offerings.

Now that is really neat! Sometimes we count them on the Christmas count...maybe once every five years or so, but I don't think we have ever seen them in winter here at the farm. Stay warm! (if possible)
When I lived in East TX used to see some kind of blue birds. Not sure if they were the Eastern variety but they were beautiful and I think they were bright blue with a little orange coloring.
