Looking Out The Window

I spotted this beautiful blue bird from my bedroom window.
Could not locate camera fast enough.
Hoping it returns so more pictures can be made.
This is a Blue Indigo Bunting which is
such a beautiful vibrant blue.
It is the size of the many yellow Finch which visit the garden behind my cottage.


Images taken through the window.

As I sit at my desk
I have a view of 3 feeders.
Never know what might visit.
Many times a surprise.

Wonder what the next surprise will be in my life ?

This world is so amazing complex that even a back yard can be full of surprises, can't it?

Beautiful blue bird! My east coast friend wrote me excitedly last year she had spotted a blue bird at one of her feeders.

Tabor, these special birds were a gift. But then guess they all are :) Cait, thanks for visiting
and joared, I love spotting something new at my feeders.

We used to have indigo buntings at my former house. I have never seen one here though. That blue is so beautiful.
Bird watching is a favorite past time for me. I love seeing birds from different parts of our country.

A local friend just saw one in his yard! I hope it flies over here. :<)
I like the glimpse of a red wagon on the lawn.

Your woodland birds are fascinating.

Balisha, I know they are near but to spot one is exciting.
Nan, that little red wagon is 35 years old. Use to bring wood to the house when I had a wood stove at the old farm house. In the winter would wheel it right inside.
Lynn, thank you...
