Nice pix. It may be a big year for Indigo Buntings, keep an eye out. Maybe he's nervous because of rivals. We had TON of INBU migrate through our small yard this spring, with plenty of them stacked up in the weeds to wait their turn at the feeder.

Yeah, the Cardinals were kept hopping with all the Buntings they had to chase this spring. They seem to like the same food items. |

Thanks for the info peachfront. Got 4 feeders out and close to each other, each with different seed. The Cardinals, Yellow Finches and Indigos like 'Premium Songbird Mix'. I have never seen more than 4 Indigos together here. Awesome that you had tons of them. They are about the prettiest bird. The iridescence, wow. |

Not particularly shy, but we also have them in larger numbers, say 4 to 10 are always nearby the feeding area. |

James shy and elusive? Maybe used to be... I think he's already gone Hollywood on us, Pat. The blue jays here are loud and sassy too, Pat. They are most raucous. My dad used to leave shelled peanuts in the yard for them, which they'd snap up in a heartbeat. So he always called them "peanut birds," lol. Western scrub-jay  |
