Description
The male painted bunting is often described as the most beautiful bird in North America. Its colours, dark blue head, green back, red rump, and underparts, make it extremely easy to identify, but it can still be difficult to spot since it often skulks in foliage even when it is singing. The plumage of female and juvenile painted buntings is green and yellow-green, serving as camouflage. Once seen, the adult female is still distinctive, since it is a brighter, truer green than other similar songbirds.

Holy Hannah!!! I've only ever seen one from a distance 30 yrs ago long before I had an SLR! So color me 40 shades of green, Danny! Is that really 10,000 ISO? Geez, my camera would roll over and die if I tried to bump the ISO up as high as it will go. Instant fave, as soon as I can pick my jaw up off the keyboard. Outstanding work, Danny!
Thanks Maria.. Yeah the IDX allows me to grab the impossible shots!
A perfect capture, such a beautiful bird. Great to see you posting again Daniel!
Another first class shot......
Gorgeous!
Wow it really is very beautiful and I never seen one here. Thanks for posting this.
This is truly a stunning find and capture; I've never seen one myself, and would dearly love to!
You did a really nice job on this truly amazing presentation, Daniel.
sweet
Striking bird this species Dan. And expertly captured. Damn this dyslexia though, I read that as "Its colours, dark blue head, green back, red rump, and underpants" ROFLMAO!
Expert tools in the hands of a master artist = unique and beautiful shot, Danny.

Amazing capture consider the very high ISO my friend. God bless.
I'd never heard of this bird before seeing this superb illustration of it in your gallery, Danny. How beautiful it is , and so is your capture of it.
