Today’s Gift[s]
We had three by 9:00 this morning. Omiimii returned with a mate (I’ll have the picture later); as did Biiy with one member of his harem. But at 8:08 this morning, we had a pair of incredible visitors: Zhaawaanag (bluebirds).
These were western bluebirds, slightly smaller than the western blue jay. We’ve had both species here occasionally over the last few days, but only individual birds; never a pair like this. For some cultures (although not ours’) bluebirds are good luck; I think seeing a pair this close to the house is a good omen in any belief system.
