Congratulations Lou Buonomo! Painted Bunting in song
Another from my visit to Texas Hill Country. I had the opporunity to study under Alan Murphy and Scott Ellowitz at the Los Madrones Ranch just out side of Austin.
All I have to say is GO THERE !!!! Mike Murphy the owner has a wonderful little place on the TX Birding trail.
So here is Painted Bunting on the perch we nicknamed stumpy...
Thanks for looking,
Lou

What a gorgeous picture of this bunting! Wonderful perch, great background, and lovely flowers are all fantastic complements to the amazingly beautiful bird! Congratulations, Lou!
Wonderful image. Thanks for sharing. Next time the flowers will have to be Texas Bluebells and then you'll have the perfect image for the TX Birding Trail :-)
Congratulations on this beautiful image. When I saw the thumbnail. I thought it was one of Alan Murphy's photos. I took a class from him at the St. Augustine Birding festival last year. He is an inspiration to me... the type of birding photography that I strive to do, which is mostly in my backyard with my Bluebirds. You obviously learned some of his techniques. well!
