"Mama, shhhh come slowly!" Lovebug called from the kitchen.

We had FIVE Indigo Buntings!!! Wow!! They visited off & on all day. We also were amazed by a new crowd of Goldfinch. A female Goldfinch is with our Indigos as well as a sparrow & Mourning Dove. There's 2 Indigos here, both a boy & girl!!

The crowd of Goldfinch enjoyed baths in the backyard. They preened and dried in a bush that looked like it was alive with wiggles.

We've seen one Indigo before but to host a handfull was wonderful. I wish either the Goldfinch or Indigos would make a home our way!! And I'm praying for a Painted Bunting! Today I could not imagine heaven without these precious birds!!

Grace! ss

We saw an indigo bunting at the walking trail once, just after we moved here. It's the only one we've seen, but I couldn't be more sure that's what it was. How lovely!
