You're right, a lot of birds up there do have blue eggs. Of course, I don't live up there nor have I ever been (I don't know what geographical/environmental barriers exist preventing the distribution of any bird over there), but looking at already documented habitats for the bird, it seems possible. http://eol.org/pages/1177542/maps

Well the Mountain Bluebird's distribution doesn't seem to be right. It might be the American Robin, but I found a lot of the birds in the Kodiak area have blue eggs.

I'd suspect an (a) american robin or a (b) mountain bluebird.
