I said on another thread that I saw but didn't get any pictures of an Indigo Bunting. I STAND CORRECTED!! What I THOUGHT was a female rose-Breasted Grosbeak at first, on further analysis is a FEMALRE Indigo Bunting! This is the FIRST female Indigo Bunting I have ever photographed. They are TOTALLY different in appearance from the males, being a pale brown all over with just hints of blue streaks in the wings and tail. They also have a GINORMOUS two-tone SNOZ, dark on the top and light on the bottom. AND NOW, Without further ado, I present Ms. Indigo Bunting!

I've probably photographed an indigo bunting before but just didn't know what kind of bird it was. Just kidding. You're too smart.

By the way, great picture.
