Where did you find the Mountain blue bird? I love all blue birds.

Loving this series! Maybe it’s because I’m an outsider (from australia) but I find bluebirds to be one of ontario’s most beautiful and underrated birds. Not a lot a talk about them among birders it seems…

Preciously because I can't find them.

On a couple of occasions: at the Beare Hill wetland and on Hall's Rd. in Whitby. The Beare Hill bird may have been a hybrid and the Hall's Rd bird was a female. I have also seen Eastern Bluebirds at Beare Hill wetland on two other occasions. The first time I only had the Canon G9 and therefore couldn't get close enough. The second time I didn't have a camera with me. I've also seen EB in the hydro field leading up to the Beare Hill wetland coming from the east. I posted those shots before, taken with the 70 - 200mm. I've also seen EB at Amos pond area at least once. A couple fleetingly appeared once at Ashbridges Bay spit.


After I find a short eared owl, I will go search for a Mountain Blue.
