A return of Joy... (PIC SPAM!!!)

"How the waiting countryside thrills with joy when Bluebird brings us the first word of returning spring ... reflecting heaven from his back and the ground from his breast, he floats between sky and earth like the winged voice of hope." W.L. Dawson


What is it about the sight of a small bird who wears the sky on his back that can make one feel that all is right with the world?

My bluebirds have returned for a second season to nest in my bird bottle. Here's the pair: female on the left, male on the right.
