I finally was able to get a photo of a indigo bunting after being told we have them around, I guess I might have not had the right timing to start with.
Another great view of a male Indigo Bunting. Such magnificent colour, I can't stop photographing them.
Indigo Bunting (Passerina cyanea), breeding males are entirely blue with a slightly darker head. Females are plain brown with a whitish throat, bluish tail, and faint streaks on the underparts. Breeds in shrubby areas at the edge of forests and fields. Males often sing from a high exposed perch.
Indigo Buntings are actually black; the diffraction of light through their feathers makes them look blue. ...
They are more common now than when the pilgrims first landed. ...
They migrate at night, using the pattern of stars nearest the North Star to guide them.

A little luck today.. i found a jewel in the grass! This is the first time i have seen any kind of Bunting in the yard, actually in my life :) It seems to prefer eating on the ground... but i am going to work on getting a shot in a tree. The NASCAR race was starting so i had to go in. I know... priorities :)

The male Indigo Buntings have a lot of brown the first year and eventually turn mostly blue by the second. The females have a buff color with a few hints of blue. This guy flew into this butterfly bush while I was photographing humming birds.
Indigo Bunting bringing a little spice to our life. You can tell by the beak that they are in the Cardinal family. They are big eaters of seeds and difficult to miss.
This photo was taken with a 600 prime and a 2x resulting in the very soft background.

There were so many Indigos in this small portion of Amelia Wildlife Management Area. It was actually pretty crazy how many I saw.

These guys are so beautful and really hard to capture without crushing either the blacks or the irridescent blue. And they move so darn fast here in Canty's Lake, Silas Condict County Park, Borough of Kinnelon, County of Morris, State of New Jersey, USA and even in the shade!
An Indigo Bunting clinging to a branch during early fall migration and molt last year. Have had a meh year so far for fall warblers and other birds so am going back into the archives
Absolutely love trying to photograph Indigo Buntings, they are loud (always, always singing) and when two different males encroach on each other's territory sparks fly. This one was calling from a surprisingly low branch in the distance. I love the blue on green colour in this image.
True joy to see and photograph this Indigo Bunting male. He was a wonderful treat not for eyes only, but also his singing was amazing.
I had two of these beauties in the yard for several days last month. Then they disappeared. I wonder if this is a different one or if he's one of my previous visitors. I just love the color of his blue.
Have a wonderful Saturday and happy snapping.
Wild and free - for a Peaceful Blue Monday!
The Indigo Macaw is a critically endangered resident of interior northeastern Brazil. These macaws are metallic blue throughout with a slight green tinge and have yellow on the bare orbital ring and in a semi-circular patch at the base of its lower mandible. These beautiful birds inhabit caatinga thorn scrub vegetation with stands of licurí palm (Syagrus coronata) and pastures near sandstone cliffs which they use for nesting and roosting. Although this species had been known to science through traded birds, a wild population wasn't discovered until 1978. Since then, several smaller populations have been discovered, with a final population estimate of 140 birds being made in 1994. The Indigo Macaw may have never been common, but wide scale clearing or licurí palm stands and hunting for meat and for the pet trade have decimated populations of this bird. Drastic measures are needed to save this bird from extinction.

Two adorable, juvenile indigo buntings came to visit the yard a few days before the bird count began. They have departed now but I was able to count them each day of the count and for a few days following.
It's always nice to be able to spend time in the yard during the migratory season. You never know who will stop by.
