Stephen > Looking around before getting a drink a water, a female painted bunting enjoys the scenery offered by those lily pads. Martin Refuge, Edinburg, Texas, June 2008
Stephen > I like this perch because it shows off the olive plumage that this female painted bunting has. The wind also seems to be blowing some of its head plumage up. Martin Refuge, Edinburg, Texas, June 2008
Stephen > Honestly, I do not remember if this female painted bunting was calling or not. I think its mouth was open just to cool off. I'm not even sure if birds do that. I like the surrounding lily pads. They add color to this rather drab female. Martin Refuge, Edinburg, Texas, June 2008
Stephen > For about a minute or so, this painted bunting flew in from under some brush and landed on a lily pad at a water feature at the Martin Refuge. It was definitely looking to cool off and get a few drinks of water. Edinburg, Texas, June 2008
Stephen > Toward the end of my day shooting at the Martin Refuge in Edinburg, Texas, I was able to take a photograph of this rather nice perch from what I thought was another olive sparrow, but it actually was female painted bunting that had come in for some water. June 2008
Stephen > This painted bunting had just finished enjoying some nice seeds from some freshly mowed grass. Midlothian, Texas, April 2008
Stephen > I so wanted to find this painted bunting on a good perch but the cut grass from a recently cut field was just too easy to get eat. This painted bunting practically ignored me as it just ate and ate and ate. You can see it grabbing the freshly cut seeds from the flowering grass or weed. I am not sure what it is, but this painted bunting enjoyed it and I enjoyed watching him. Midlothian, Texas, April 2008.
Stephen > Still munching on some seed from cut grass and weeds, this painted bunting begins to wonder how long the guy with the camera will stay. Midlothian, Texas, April 2008.
Stephen > I am sure that this painted bunting must have been looking back at all the noise the scissor tailed flycatchers were making trying to outsing and battle each other for territory. Meanwhile, this painted bunting just kept eating the seeds. If you look carefully, a seed is falling past his beak. Midlothian, Texas, April 2008.
