Northern Cardinal |
Another interesting bird captured this was an adult male Indigo Bunting. We band many Indigo Buntings during the course of a fall at KIBS but what made this one interesting was that it was still in alternate plumage. Every other Indigo Bunting that we have banded over the years have been in basic plumage. This bird should molt out of its breeding blues and into its winter browns very soon.
