Indigo in Flight

Species: indigo bunting, Passerina cyanea | Location: Private home, Immokalee, Florida, United States

Image was captured in Immokalee, Florida as the bird flew from a perch on bush to a feeder hung near the Bismarck palm which is the background plant. Specialized flash equipment was used so that the image was captured at a flash duration (effective shutter speed) of 1/30.000 sec. freezing the image at high resolution. The image was shot in the wild in the backyard of a private home.
