We have several bluebirds hanging out in our yard, looking for nests and munching on grubs. I look forward every day to seeing them out there. I don't know why, but to me they have always represented good spirits coming to visit and I always smile and send them good wishes. This little fellow was resting by the doorway to our shed and allowed me to come so close to take this picture that I soon realized he was not well. I left him alone then, and kept away the occasional harassing mockingbird who cursed at me from a distance. He passed away not long afterwards. I hope I am that peaceful and accepting when my time comes.
