This is a lifer (first) for me. I don't think they're terribly rare, just my first.

Oh yeah this indigo bunting bit they’re pretty easy to find this time of year and definitely not my best phot of one. I try not to take them for granted.

I’d mentioned I would look for some painted buntings and i did. I heard some and blue grosbeak and red eyed vireo which are somewhat uncommon. This was the highlight though. Not a bird.
