a flash of blue catches my eye
ms
a quick flutter on the fence post
always keeping a safe distance
with trills of rich musical notes
a rare sight in this area
at the edge of their range
found in bushy, moist pastures
and roadside thickets
gift of a blue grosbeak

I expect to see a book of poetry accompanied by some photography in the coming years. 🙂

I noticed this bird as I was driving, the blue was so powerful for me. I had to follow them for a distance to get this image. Each time I would get close enough it would move on. This is a major crop but I have a photo of a Blue Grosbeak now. Since I live along the edge of their range I may never see one again. 😩
