The Tree Sparrows take over the Bluebird houses and are way more aggressive than the Bluebirds who I'd rather see peaking out! Good capture anyway, Amy!

Artist Reply: Actually at this particular Audobon location they have so many nesting boxes and land acreage that the blue birds do just fine for themselves. Every time I have gone to this spot I have seen bluebirds too... they are just not so helpful with photos. I do love them though. And psyched because I am going to the Parker River Wildlife Refuge later today and will likely see literally thousands of birds (4500+ acre saltmarsh refuge).
