Nessa What a bright beautiful bird! You might have to get even more sneaky huh? I think you were good enough for this guy..he didnt see you coming until it was too late! Great shot. Paul
If I could see how he's holding the bat it would be easier to tell if he's attempting to bunt this inning. Though from the way he's leaning into the plate he better be careful he doesn't get picked off with a wild pitch. A colourful little fella you've captured here, Nessa. Nice dof and details in the photo.
Yes indeed! a male Indigo Bunting - you are so lucky! I had these in my yard for a week or so one spring a long time ago and they are absolutely stunning in their "blueness!" good job of capturing this guy - mine were so skittish I never had a chance!
