That's a wonderful closeup! Love the color!

Excellent!

Outstanding! Color, comp and sharp as can be. What a cutie too. We get mostly sparrows, blue jays and robins here with the occasional cardinal or woodpecker to spice things up. I have never seen a blue bird here.

Thanks very much Sharon. This is a "Blue Wren" or "Splendid Fairy Wren".
I took this one in the Margaret River region around 3 hours south of where I am here in Perth.
This link has a bit more info about the wren.

Splendid Fairy-wren - BirdLife Australia

There is no false modesty attached to the Splendid Fairy-wren — it lives up to its name. Male birds in breeding plumage shimmer in electric shades of blue
