Painted Bunting, Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge, OK, United States of America
Painted Bunting

Species: Painted Bunting | Location: Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge, OK, United States of America

While photographing birds in the Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge, I was able to photograph this male Painted Bunting as he patrolled his territory. I was a pleasure to watch him intermittently sing and chase off intruders.
