Male blue bird with gray belly and red on breast and top of wings. They can be distinguished from other Bluebirds as follows: The Western Bluebird which has a blue throat, the Eastern Bluebird has an orange throat, and the Mountain Bluebird lacks orange color anywhere on its body. Female can be seen at my other spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/863...
Near and on California Pepper Tree at Lake Dixon park.
They compete with Starlings and Swallows for nesting sites such as nest boxes or cavities.
