I got out at the end of the day yesterday and visited a different area that holds Bluebirds... here is one of the images of the male Eastern Bluebird.

Totally unacceptable without the snow :)
Has a very spring evening feel to it with the buds

Great light, perch and details, the BG looks good, too. There are some artifacts in the BG, probably due to compression. I'm wondering if lightening the dark patches in the BG would make it even better.
Beautiful lighting and composition Mike. You are killing us with these stunning bluebird images. Love it.
Mike, Another great image of a bluebird! Complete with Cherry Blossoms!!
Great pose, perch, BG and light.
Very nice perch, composition and BG, love the blossoms.
IMO, the best of the series, although it doesn't have snow :)
Colors and perch are superb, terrific compo and detail. Congratulations!
Stunning Mike! Superb composition, colours, BG and detail!
Top class Photography!
Lovely portrait, delicate like a Japanese print! Small nit: would have liked to have seen a little bit more of the feet.
Beautiful capture Mike. I love Bluebirds. We had several in our backyard when we lived in NC. I miss their chatter :)
This may be the best bluebird shot Ive seen... Awesome.
