Indigo Bunting At Deep Creek Lake

Indigo Bunting at Deep Creek Lake, MD, by Rob Paine. If you want great bird photos that don’t include feeders, remember to look to the trees above or near your back porch feeders.
Typically birds including this Indigo Bunting  will perch on branches before or after they fly to their food source.
