Great look at this lovely bird. I wish we had them around here! I especially like the photos with the Cardinal because they give me a good idea of the relative size of your beautiful Indigo bunting.

Indigos are now a regular here in spring. Try offering White Millet seeds(their fave) in a feeder near bushes. They are shy birds.
Lovely captures of this very pretty bird!
What a beautiful colour. Stunning bird.
Hiya phyllis,
Your American birds are so colourful.
And to have red and blue on the same picture is striking.
Thank-you everyone.For some reason I got doubles on 2 of the pictures,sometimes the computer does what it chooses,hah.
You all submitted fantastic photos!Now I`m off to see the others,blessings to you on this overcast-waiting on an ice & snow storm-day in Pa.!phylliso
How lucky to be able to photograph the indigo bunting!
He's quite lovely! Hope they do nest around the area and you get some more great photos of them to share!
The shot of the incredibly blue Indigo Bunting with the Northern Cardinal on the feeder is really cool. It's always nice to be able to compare two species side by side.
Wonderful feeder photo! We have only seen indigo buntings once -- when we stayed in Port Aransas Texas one Spring (they and a jillion other birds migrate through there).... the buntings remain one of my favorite sightings ever.
lol, that is a very blue bird. Love the color. I really hope you get your wish fulfilled. So you can show us some juveniles. :)
