Blue Bunting
Obviously far from a good shot, but this Blue Bunting was found in the garden surrounding the Laguna Atascosa Visitor Center on the evening of Feb 12. That is a blurred out piece of vegetation causing the belly to appear pale.


Painted Bunting also found in the Laguna Atascosa VC garden on Feb 11.
