food
Its food is very varied, especially of seeds, fruits and insects.

reproduction
Bluebird breeds between September and February, builds its nest not far from the ground and each litter usually has between 2 and 3 eggs, having 3 to 4 litters per season. The puppies are born between 13 and 15 days after the female lay the eggs.

Habits
It is found on the edge of marshes, secondary forests and plantations.

This bird is territorialist. You can not see her as a pack. If there is a couple in a certain location, it will only be possible to find another couple at a distance. The blue-spotted pups stay with their parents until a certain time, then they go to an "independent" life, because the territorialistic instinct of the azulão will not let him stay around after being in adulthood. Thus, the puppy will have to find its own territory and its mating partnership. If one male invades the territory of another, surely there will be a conflict, and it will be very violent. Therefore there is a certain respect between the birds and their territories, but there is always the bravest who, by territory or a female, will come into conflict and conquer the desired.

Geographic distribution
Its geographic distribution ranges from the Northeast of Brazil to Rio Grande do Sul, as well as in Bolivia, Paraguay and Argentina.
