A Blue Wren


Yesterday, I spotted this Blue Wren (Malurus cyaneus) in the Garden, So I thought that I would share the picture. These little birds tend to live in family groups. The one pictured is the male of the species with females being a dull brown color. Their distribution is only on the east coast (Australia) from Brisbane south to Tasmania and through into southern South Australia.

What do you think

I was thinking of sending this photo to the Wildlife Photographer of the year. What do you all think. I captured it in Mt Isa by the dam.
