Title: In hiding, taking a picture of one and got two.
Post by: marloandlarry628 on June 05, 2013, 09:43:54 AM
I had stepped out my front door and saw the yellow finch in the tree I turned and got my camera took a picture of the bird and what a surprise hiding on another limb was a little blue bird not sure what kind he/she is.  If you know just give me a shout or better yet just comment I will be able to read what you say than to hear you when you shout.  Just kidding.  Here's my surprise.

So glad to see your pictures again Marlo!  You have been missed!

I'm not sure what blue that is.....perhaps someone else has an idea!   That was s special treat getting 2 when you thought there was one!

I can't find my bird book, so it's only a guess, but it looks like it could be an Indigo Bunting.

Great to see you back with us, Marlo.    <3

It lokks like a Blue Grosbeak. Too much brown on the wings to be an Indigo Bunting. Do you have a way to lighten your photos a little. I look at the Display on my Camera and the Birds look great. But when I download them they are dark. A little liftneing and a touch of contrast can make a world of difference. It;s still amazing you ot both Birds at the same time. I can't find any American Goldfinches this year and they are one of my favorite Birds. Thanks for sharung and have a Blessed day.
