Eastern Bluebird: Kennebunk, Maine, USA, January 2026 \u2014 I snuck up the stairs to the back deck one cold day and stood in the shadow of the house, hoping to photograph some of our feeder birds without the double-glazed glass deck door between me and them. Our bluebirds, nuthatches, titmice, chickadees, and woodpeckers (both hairy and downy) are used to me enough now so if I stand relatively still they will still come to the feeders. The angle is not great, but I stand any further forward they startle. I caught this interaction between two bluebirds. As always it is very difficult not to read emotions into the postures of the bluebirds\u2026or to put it another way, it seems to always be easy to write captions for bluebird photos. \ud83d\ude42 I am sure you can come up with some great ones for this interaction. Sony a6700. Sigma 16-300 at 450mm equivalent field of view (cropped to something short of 600mm fov). Program with my birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Photomator. Assemble in FrameMagic. <\/p>\n
