I did not get a picture of her but he hung around for about 15 minutes. Sorry about the pictures I was shooting through a tinted window .. I have never seen a Painted Bunting this early in the year. They were a welcomed surprise.. The sun is still shining here it was a perfect weekend for bird watching. I have been cleaning out flowerbeds which is early for me.

ReplyDeleteThat has to be the most colorful bird in the world! Maybe not in the world, but sure is pretty. Great photos, window or not.
ReplyDeletethank you for following me.
You had a lot of birds in your bird count. The Painted Bunting is so beautiful. So many colors on one bird.
