My first shot with my newer, new camera!! I sent the Panasonic back and now have a Canon S5 IS.

The Indigo Bunting, Passerina cyanea, is a small seed-eating bird in the family Cardinalidae.

Adult males have deep blue plumage; the wing and tail are black with blue edges. Adult females are brown: darker on the upperparts, faintly streaked underneath.

The song of this bird is a high-pitched buzzed sweet-sweet chew-chew sweet-sweet.

Any and all comments and critiques welcome!!
