Indigo

Indigo Bunting
An Indigo Bunting visited our feeder this morning. I first spotted him in the yard out back where I was hunting Morel mushrooms. I have never seen a IB before, so off I went to get the camera. Once inside the house I noticed he was now at the feeder.  The feeder is located just outside our bay window, which I have setup for photo ops of birds.  The IB was bouncing around the feeder, pausing on each post that are positioned as props.. it was like he was waiting for his photo to be taken.... Luck had it that Trish was able to enjoy viewing this little guy before he departed.   It's been about an hour now and I have not seen this little blue bird again...  What a handsome fellow he is!!

  2. As amazing as he looks here in Bill's photos, he was even more amazing in real life - incredible color, and an engaging personality, even coming close to the window and looking in for a moment, hovering humming bird-like, then whizzing off just to make a u-turn and come back to light on the feeder...!
