I once saw one on a logging road in the Pennsylvania wilds. Every time I’d jog or walk along the road he would fly in front of me. It was like seeing a beautiful man in public; I never forgot him. ❤

I love listening to and looking at these guys in meadows and farmland in the summer!

Me too! They are beautiful singers.

Thanks for the video, I had an Indigo Bunting in my backyard this evening. I don't think I've ever noticed one before here in Iowa.

[@carsonsbackyardgarden7135]

That’s great! Glad you got to see one of these cool birds.

@@carsonsbackyardgarden7135 there is a whole flock of them hanging around today. They are mixed in with a flock of Gold Finches part of the time. They must be feeding on something in my yard around the lilac bushes.

I came home to find a dead male indigo bunting on my deck yesterday. I took a picture of it and was planning on removing some of it's gorgeous feathers for curiosity sake. Unfortunately, I walked outside this morning to do so, and a critter apparently had made off with it and left no trace of the poor little gorgeous bird.

Aww sorry to hear!
