Ravens and Bluebirds

Alone on the hill this half-overcast morning. The sun had mostly emerged by the time we headed back down. But meantime, I got great looks at a couple of ravens and numerous (a dozen? more?) bluebirds. Also goldfinches, buntings, etc.—but the bluebirds took the cake.

Meanwhile, at home, I got a look at some waxwings in the front yard.
