Bluebirds and the truth in Thoreau's wisdom

Henry David Thoreau once wrote, "The bluebird carries the sky on his back". You only need to take the time to watch a perched  eastern bluebird - like this one yards from my door in Brandon Township - on a rainy day in early spring to know that Thoreau got it right. Sometimes few words say the most. His eight words speak volumes. And the blue sky will return.
