The bluebird carries the sky on his back – Henry David Thoreau, Journal, April 3, 1852

So a little persistence and patience and I got my full color bluebird shots! This flock had been feeding off a pepperberry tree near Saint Luke’s, downtown Los Gatos but the light hadn’t been great when I photographed them earlier. So when the morning broke bright and sunny I took off for the parking lot and waited with the scent of cupcakes hanging in the air… and they came!
