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 beautiful Indigo Bunting on top of a sunflower- the seeds have not developed yet so it did not hang around that morning!
wishing you a safe and happy 'Blue Monday'!

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 :)

Indigo bunting singing his heart out.
Many thanks to all those who View, Comment and or Fave My Photos !!
I've seen and heard this colorful guy several times this year and finally got lucky enough to have him pose at a good angle at relatively close range.

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.

Walking along this trail I heard a familiar call. Persistent and assertive after a few calls to it, this Indigo Bunting (m) popped out to check me out.

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!

The all-blue male Indigo Bunting sings with cheerful gusto and looks like a scrap of sky with wings. Sometimes nicknamed "blue canaries," these brilliantly colored yet common and widespread birds whistle their bouncy songs through the late spring and summer all over eastern North America. Look for Indigo Buntings in weedy fields and shrubby areas near trees, singing from dawn to dusk atop the tallest perch in sight or foraging for seeds and insects in low vegetation.
I recently visited an indoor tropical garden to photograph the various butterflies there (something I do every year around this time). Photos of that to follow.
In the garden, there's also some tropical/colourful birds flying about (although they're very skittish and tend to hide in the bushes). This little guy caught my attention as he was returning to the same perch/bush every few minutes. I just waited him out and eventually got this shot.
