It's kind of not clear or in proper focus. The only tiny, blue coloured bird I know of would be the Eastern Bluebird. The beak seems a bit on the long side, though.

Anyone else?

Not sure what it is - but it sure looks small and I'll bet fast. Nice shot.

If I had to guess, I would say maybe a baby hummingbird.
After looking on the internet for an hour, that was the closest resemblance I could find.

Nice photo though!

I don't think it's much of a shot myself.

I just posted it to see if anyone else on the forum could identify it. Sort of a birding pop quiz.

I know what it is.

Anyone else care to take a guess?

What a coincidence, I'm a Blonde headed Sackscratcher!

Hell, I didn't know it was a loaded question!
You knew the answer before you ask it.
No one told me this was a test!
