A pair of eastern bluebirds visiting our backyard and feeders.

This appears to be a breeding pair whose territory includes our backyard after a battle for dominance between several males in late January-February. Below is one relatively mild photo of two males fighting: we were shocked at the brutality of the battle, as they were pecking at each other's head and eyes.

Wow, getting the "battle" shot is cool!
 
Your photos are wonderful. AKVET is right. The battle shot is a unique and beautiful image. Great captures!

I took this photo yesterday morning. I was still too far away, but this is the best so far that I've taken of a bluebird.
