On the heels of his Army Ant Parade, Rick Chrustowski examines a clutch of young bluebird hatchlings as they learn to fly in Blue Sky Bluebird. One reluctant bluebird is depicted taking flight for the first time. The book features a sidebar, ""Peek Inside an Egg,"" that shows the embryo's development, and concludes by discussing the resurgence of the bluebird population as well as variants in the species across the nation.
