[va-bird] Bluebirds

While looking out our kitchen window just a little while ago, Susie and I saw a
flock of eight Bluebirds flying around and landing on the "porch" of our
Bluebird house. Four of them went in, one after another. Some of the other four
looked in, but then flew away without going in. Maybe the house was full.
I've read about Bluebirds roosting together in birdhouses to stay warm, and
it's apparent that's what these were doing. The temperature is about 20 deg,
there is 10 inches of snow on the ground (and the roof of the birdhouse), it is
still snowing, and the wind is blowing hard.
