Indigo Bunting 3.19.10

I have been watching a little brown bird at the feeder start getting a bit more blue every day. We’ve been gone for 2 weeks and he is really looking good.

He looked so beautiful sitting there with the bright red Cardinal.

He will be even more prettier  in another month. I had 7 bright blue males here last year.  There were 2 at the feeder today.

  3. Very pretty! Send some of them up here! Last year we had several, but they seemed to be passing thru. I got some pictures of them with the goldfinch in their bright yellow...a beautiful sight!

  7. I am waiting on the buntings in Lower Alabama..they usually show up here in April..not much longer. I have lots of bluebirds and other birds. But I do love the buntings, blue and painted.

  9. Lovely to see the cardinal and bunting at the feeder together. We've still got snow on the ground, so I'll just sit a while and admire your beautiful yard....
