On Saturday morning, I had a most wonderful surprise.

I looked over at the deer fence to see four or five Western Bluebird, each perched atop a fence post.

Fortunately, I had my camera at hand!

Here's a male.

And a female. 

Two females.

And another.

A female and male.

A male.

They spoke quietly to one another for a couple of minutes, before taking off together and fly off to the south.  Western Bluebirds reside in the Willamette Valley all year long, but I have never seen one in October before.
