Description
This baby bluebird needed to rest and our porch railing in Bay Saint Louis, MS in the cool shade was a perfect spot. He didn't seem to mind me coming and going to get the camera as long as I allowed him to get his second wind. Eastern Bluebirds live approximately 6-10 years and many females have two broods in a season. This baby bird is probably about a month old, from the first brood in the spring.

Very sweet capture! How great that he hung out while you got the camera!
Kathy K McClellan replied:
Thanks Judi. I could not believe how long he sat on that porch railing. He was not one bit afraid of me!

How fortunate that it picked your porch to rest. Great camera work, the focus is so crisp it looks real. Well done, Kathy!

Amazing moment captured! How awesome to be able to witness this little one and the first flight!:)
Kathy K McClellan replied:
Christy, I was so blessed that he hung out on that railing for as long as he did. Usually by the time I grab the camera and get back outside the birds or other critters I want to capture are gone. But not this little guy!

Such a little thing!

He was. I think this must have been his first real "long distance" flight.
