Description
An Eastern Bluebird, Sialia sialis, is about to deliver a larvae to its brood on a farm in summers County, West Virginia.
This is the most widespread of the three bluebirds. Although it is mostly 'eastern' in our area, its total range extends south to Nicaragua. A high percentage of Eastern Bluebirds in North America today nest in birdhouses put up especially for them along 'bluebird trails.' When they are not nesting, these birds roam the countryside in small flocks.
