Morning male Eastern bluebird

Photographed by Connor Brennan

The bluebirds in our neighborhood have come to recognize my face from constantly seeing me walking around and taking nature photos. This male has been perching closer and closer to me over the last couple of weeks. He perched here on this twig, creating a great backdrop for a lucky picture of him.
