A bluebird is a small North American songbird with bright blue plumage, belonging to the thrush family.

Three species exist: eastern, western, and mountain bluebirds.

The bird symbolizes happiness and hope in American culture: the bluebird of happiness.

Bluebird also describes ideal conditions, especially in skiing—a sunny day with clear blue skies: It's a bluebird day on the mountain.
