“A bird does not sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.” -Maya Angelou
Eastern bluebirds are the most widespread of the three types of bluebird. They’re found in in grasslands, forest clearings and meadows across a huge area from southern Canada to Central America.

All bluebirds are cavity nesters, making their homes in the hollows of trees, often in holes vacated by bigger birds like woodpeckers. Nest boxes have also played a big part in helping the eastern bluebird population rebound after a steep decline in the early 20th century, due to reduced habitat and the introduction of non-native species, which compete with them for nesting holes.

Other types of bluebirds are the mountain bluebirdand the western bluebird.
The eastern bluebird (Sialia sialis) is a small North American migratory thrush found in open woodlands, farmlands and orchards.
The bright-blue breeding plumage of the male, easily observed on a wire or open perch, makes this species a favorite of birders. The male’s call includes sometimes soft warbles of jeew or chir-wi, or the melodious song chiti WEEW wewidoo.
I do hope that you fell in love with the minute bluebirds that make the meadows, the far away forests and the familiar orchards more beautiful, colorful and enjoyable. Their song is enchanting. Next time you see one, stop and listen to its chirping.

Ma numar printre cei care Il considera pe Dumnezeu Tatal Ceresc si Creatorul tuturor celor vazute si nevazute. Sufletul nostru este o particica din El iar stradania de o viata trebuie sa fie aceea de a nu Il pierde , de a-L avea mereu langa noi.
El este Calea , Adevarul si Viata , dar este si Iubire in sensul cel mai inalt , mai inaltator in nemarginirea ei .
Fara Dumnezeu orizontul cunoasterii noastre ar ramane foarte limitat iar sufletul nostru s-ar "pipernici" de tot , ca sa folosesc un cuvant intrebuintat in scrierile sale de Sfantul Ardealului , Parintele Arsenie Boca . Acestea le-am aflat de-a lungul vietii mele in timp ce in repetate randuri m-am simtit ridicata cu multa blandete dupa o cadere in valurile ei gata sa ma inec , ajutata apoi sa imi revin ca sa constat o data in plus, neindoielnica Prezenta Divina prin care nimic nu este imposibil a fi atins de cel care crede in El , daca Domnul Voieste stiind ca este spre Binele lui si nu spre pierzania sufletului.
In mintea si intentia mea paginile care vor forma acest mijloc de comunicare usor si lesne de accesat vor incerca sa prezinte cititorilor sfaturi de mare folos duhovnicesc desprinse din scrierile sau spusele marilor sfinti parinti si daruitilor duhovnici ai lumii crestin ortodoxe.
