A bluebird, indeed! But not sure the exact type 😅

If you have any other shots where you can see the throat color better that would cinch it. Blue throat = Western, orange throat = Eastern!

I don't have any close up shots of the bird but I remember it had a blue coat. I don't recall seeing orange colour on any of its body parts.

I didn't even know I had captured the bird until I bumped up the shadows while editing the picture haha!!

You can see the orange breast well enough, though muted. Looking on eBird though, it does look like the vast majority of reports in the area are Western, so you could lean that way!
