This afternoon, I happened to see a young male (and molting) Indigo Bunting in our pink dogwood tree. He foraged for insects on the underside of the leaves, and then rose up from the behind the pink blossoms like The Great Pumpkin. Then he gave me a good look at the rest of him and it was apparent that he was still molting away his winter plumage to his full on bright indigo blue!
The Indigo Bunting can breed in our area and wouldn't that be exciting!
