The Bluebird is a member of the thrush family related to the American Robin. The Eastern Bluebird (Sialia sialis) is generally found in the eastern half of North America to the Rocky Mountains.

The Western Bluebird (Sialia mexicana) is typically found west of the Rocky Mountains. All three species are blue on the back. The Eastern has a red breast and white belly. The Western is similar to the Eastern with the red of the breast spreading around to the back.

The 'Bluebird' trademark below accurately depicts the bird's colour, twin tail feathers, beak and head shape. Many songs and poems have been written about this lively little animal.  The Bluebird became immortalized in Maurice Maeterlinck's play: 'The Bluebird' which first inspired Malcolm Campbell to adopt the name for his racing vehicles in the 1930's.  This name was carried on by Donald Campbell and in turn by Nelson Kruschandl in his Bluebird Electric designs.  We in turn are similarly inspired with our vehicles, parts and racing endeavours.
