Indigo Bunting

I swear to god, this bird was posing for me.

I was out refilling one of the feeders – around 7:30pm —  and as I came back into the dogs’ fenced in area, I saw a blur of color at the bird feeder. At first I thought it was a confused hummingbird, but then I realized it was a male Indigo Bunting. I watched him for a while,  and then I went inside thinking the slider would scare him off.

It didn’t.

I grabbed my camera and went back outside. Here are some more of the shots.

Some spring photos from my yard.

A Great Crested Flycatcher collecting materials for a nest. This was a first time sighting for me. So glad the camera was sitting out on my desk so I could grab the shot.

Friday photo: Cardinal in winter

03.26.2010 by Susan Getgood //

Cardinal

Cardinals are pretty birds year round, and I love the spring, when the females turn a more rosy, less brown shade. But there’s something so striking about a male cardinal in winter.

ADDED: I had already posted this photo when I learned about the beyond snapshots photo contest to win a red epiphanie camera bag.  (Hat tip Yvonne at Joy Unexpected). To enter, you have to post a photo that represents red. Since that’s pretty much why I adore cardinals, I figured why not enter. Contest ends April 2d.
