Ready for the Bunting This Year

Last year I was crying in my bird seed about not being able to get good shots of the Indigo Bunting. I had to shoot through the kitchen window screen and that side of the house is shaded most of the time. Then I had the big idea. I can move the screen up and out of the way. Duh!

This year I was ready for a photo op in case the bunting showed up again. I got shots of it molting earlier and that process in nearly complete. Voila!



If it would let me, I would watch it all day. Simply a beautiful species.



He won't be here too much longer, however and I will have to find a new fix.



Thanks for the poses, my friend!
