This pretty bird is bright blue with a red breast.  It eats primarily insects and wild fruit. The bluebird (Sialia sialis) is a migratory bird of the thrush family that usually nests near woodlands. It's territorial, which means that it will try to keep other bluebirds out of its nesting area.

Bluebird populations, once severely depressed due to loss of hollow nesting trees, have staged a come back largely due to nest box programs.
