Observation details

First spring record for Alaska. Photos taken by Sherri Wayne: “I first saw the bird Wednesday June 17, and then again over the next two days. It was on the grass eating the finch seed several times each day - June 17, 18, and 19. I also had pine siskins and a few other little birds come to the feeder and also eat the seeds on the grass, but this blue bird only showed up when no other birds were around. I was hoping to see it over that weekend and kept a watchful eye out the next couple of days, but haven't seen it since June 19.” Photos posted on Facebook "... were taken outside the Crest condos on Douglas, right next to Lawson Creek".
