Just so amazing the way he works! I can sit here and watch him all day long.

Took this pic of an eastern bluebird and I love how well it blends into the tree. What are the best camouflaged birds?
Seen in OBX, NC. We originally thought it was injured but learned from the local animal rescue that they rest like this beached on the shore for up to 24 hours only occasionally moving closer to the water. I figured all would have migrated north by now but to each their own I guess.
Update: This pretty bird has flown away after convincing many beach passersby that it was injured. Apparently they rest on this beach so often that local authorities are inundated with calls about them to the point they needed to put out a press release informing the public that the bird is fine and will move back into the water to fly away once rested.
Appreciate everyone’s advice on getting it to rehab. That was my first instinct and I called them immediately when seeing it, but thankfully it was not necessary.
Having a bird come right up to the window to watch closely is cool. I just wish it wasn't an angry bird.
If this is inappropriate, I will delete this post.
I put Mjölnir inside right away. I wish I could explain to Screech and Stella that he is not a threat. Mjölnir has zero interest in him, and between his arthritis and the drugs, he couldn't catch a bird if he tried. But Mjölnir is cat shaped, and Stella and Screech deserve a calm nesting environment, so Mjölnir will not be helping me garden anymore this spring.
I just thought Mjölnir's "Dude, I was asleep. Chill." face funny and wanted to share.
Bonus Steller's Jay pic from last month. I love these little dudes.
Edit: I would not let him outside at all if he was a threat to birds, I've only done so since I put him in palliative care and he's too high to hurt anything.
I was shocked when I caught this lil lady looking like Sid the sloth in the third photo! Spotted yesterday at Caw Caw near Charleston, SC. Shot on a Canon R7 with an RF 100-500.
