Another shot of this little female Mountain Bluebird, seen along one of the gravel backroads south west of the city. Though you can only see a faint hint of blue on her feathers, I always think the texture of her breast feathers is pretty. I was so lucky that she "posed" for me, just a few feet from the nesting box that she and her mate were trying to defend from some Tree Swallows who wanted to take it over.
