I have been looking for bluebirds for weeks now, but we never seemed to get the large flocks migrating through the plains this year. Therefore, we went looking for them today up in their mountain meadow nesting areas and found them. Watch the slide show for images from today.
P.S. Happy Anniversary Julie!
