Want to become a birder but don't know how? Join me here every Friday--on Feathered Friday--where I'll post an online video featuring the bird of the week. Keep a running list of these birds to add to an Online Life List. Then when you identify the featured bird outside--in your yard, neighborhood, or park--add it to your actual Life List of birds seen or heard. "Collecting" birds is great fun, but more, you open your eyes and ears to a whole new world of beauty and song!
And here's another video, one with still images but audio of the male bluebird's song. Also interesting is the behavior of the male described by the commentator. Not more than a week ago, I was actually the recipient of this very same behavior! A male bluebird flew down from his perch on a phone line and fluttered in the air before me about 20 feet in the air. He wasn't close--about 50 feet away--but even so, his intent was clear. He came down from that wire to display before me. Incredible, huh?
