About These Birds
Eastern Bluebird
The eastern bluebird is a beloved symbol of happiness in North America. Once declining due to habitat loss and competition from introduced species, populations recovered dramatically thanks to a massive citizen science nest box campaign. These gentle thrushes form loose winter flocks and huddle together in nest boxes during cold snaps.
Andean Solitaire
The Andean Solitaire is a melodious thrush with a 16.8 cm wingspan, weighing around 28 grams. It inhabits cloud forests along the Andes, where its rich, flute-like song resonates through the understory. It feeds on small fruits and insects gleaned from vegetation.
