Despite being on the sidelines for a while I've had a few nice birding moments. A few weeks ago, I had the second occasion in the last three years to photograph a male Painted Bunting. This is a rare bird for my neck-of-the-woods (Maryland). What would be interesting to know is whether or not it is the same bird. The sightings were about 20 miles apart in residential backyards, at bird feeders. Although I saw him 4-5 times on this occasion, he remained mostly in the shadows..
