I didn't invent the rainy day, man. I just own the best umbrella - Almost famous (movie)
Don't we all get the blues when it suddenly starts raining in the summer. The dark clouds dampen our mood. Everything around is wet...
I certainly was about to start singing the blues (and was about to risk a police complaint from the neighbors for the caterwauling that would have been my singing π) - when I saw this brilliantly blue bird fly and perch below a yellow leaf!
Wow ! Could there BE any more positive symbolism in life ( I sounded almost like Chandler Bing there didn't I!π)
As we all know - a Yellow umbrella is a symbol for hope and love and everything that can be positive in life.
So - here was the #tedmosby of birds. With his own Yellow umbrella - like the one carried by Ted Mosby in the TV show "How I met your mother"
This seemed to be the Verditer flycatcher's favorite home spot like the (0,0,0,0) coordinates for his favorite spot on the couch as stated by Sheldon Cooper of the TV show "Big Bang Theory"
When the sun was out, the bird flew around and perched on other branches...
However, a little darkening of the sky, a bit of a wind and back the bird went to it's home spot. Snuggling even closer to the yellow umbrella - as we can see in the click below...
By the way - this was not the only blue bird around either! Blues abounded that day when the sun was caught in dark depressing clouds.
Here is one more blue, a Blue rock thrush hiding in it's own comfy spot in a rocky crevice..
So - some blues had a yellow umbrella and others had a solid rocky roof over their head. One blue though, carried' it's own sunshine!
See this Tickel's blue flycatcher that has it's own right yellow coloring on his body - always reminding everyone of sunshine!
So - I thoroughly enjoyed the positive symbols sent by mother nature that day. It lifted my mood and I was buoyant again.

No problem. Thanks for sharing such cool pictures.
The blue birds are so cute
Iβve never seen a blue bird in my entire life though
@rafzat We need to get away from city locations a bit to see some interesting birds. The blue ones in this post (Verditer flycatcher and Blue rock thrush) are usually seen near edge of forests.
The photography are really amazing I must truly confess
@biyimi Thank you for taking the time to enjoy my clicks and for the kind words of encouragement.

Stunning vibrant colours to lift ones mood, even when gloomy rain days set in.
No more 'blues' simply look into nature to find positive joy.
Nice results with each bird presented and story line to ponder.

@joanstewart Thanks. Not many of us get the chance to appreciate the positivity in nature in our daily lives. Hopefully, my post will give an opportunity to some of us to do so.
As usual - you have correctly captured the essence of the post. Thank you for all the support.
Rain here today a blessing, small white-bellied sunbird singing joyfully right outside my window.
Awesome!
