    Default Mountain Bluebird nesting

    Saw them flying always to the same spot, so I took position with my 70-300mm lens and waited. Took not even ten minutes and they both came to the hole.

    Very cool shots OWLP. Nice to see such natural shots. Most bluebird shots I see are around man-made birdhouses.
    Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

    Beautiful set of images of sweet little birds! There used to be little mountain bluebird boxes along the fences southwest of town on the country roads. We used to see them and the little birds flying around when we went out to cater for the Polo Club. Not sure if they still maintain them or not.
