To describe my lifelong fascination with flight and with creatures that fly I like to echo the words of John James Audubon who in 1839 wrote of himself as "...one who never can cease to admire and to study with zeal and the most heartfelt reverence, the wonderful productions of an Almighty Creator."

Western Bluebird male at Oregon vineyard
Yesterday I was assisting a group of out-of-state visitors whose schedule included a stop at a vineyard and winery here in Yamhill Co. During the tour, when attention was drawn to the numerous Bluebird nestboxes scattered around the vineyard property, the host explained that the vineyard owners have for several years been participating in the Prescott Bluebird Recovery Project. As I was leaving, this male Bluebird stopped on a wire near its nestbox just long enough for a quick shot.
