Eastern bluebirds prefer open land with scattered trees for perching, nesting, and feeding. They are often seen in parks, gardens, hedges, and other areas that provide perches. They are also commonly found sitting on fences and utility wires.

Emma, I didn't know that was a commonly preferred sitting spot... I wonder what's so good about a wire?
