My First Indigo Bunting Sighting!



On Sunday May 31, 2009... I saw my first Indigo Bunting ever, up at my friend's place in King City, Ontario. There are reports of them closer to my home than her place but I have yet to see any. Angie and I kept our eyes open for them at Rattray Marsh the other week with no luck (though some other birders saw 3 moments before).

Now I will have to get Angie up to my friend's place sometime this summer to catch a glimpse. I actually saw 2 males a number of times at her feeders. Awesome!

    Hi Rob. Will let you know if I see any out here in Mississauga. Years ago, saw 14 of these bright blue beauties at Erindale Park!
