Western Bluebirds on the Campus Quad

It's been gloomy of late, what with six days of rain, and five days of fog and overcast skies. The conditions weren't ideal for photographing birds, but while I wandered the campus on Tuesday, I did run across a number of Western Bluebirds (Sialia mexicana) in the main quad. Nothing else was likely as a photography target, so I snapped a couple of shots in the gray conditions. They are beautiful birds even if the prevailing skies are not!
