Oh, so close. I wish you were right because I have never gotten anywhere near
the elusive Wood Thrush.

I must sign off now and take my meds.

No it is not an Indigo Bunting, but it is a tricky one I'll admit.

Ally, you are on the right track.

Clue #1: It is a common bird
Clue#2: It is a summer bird
Clue#3: As seen, it is an ephemeral bird

I will get my David Bird's Birds of Canada this afternoon so more to study. But I will take my best guess at this bird: House wren, maybe just out of a mud shower? :lol:

Sorry, not a House Wren.
No mud in sight.
This bird couldn't yet handle mud.
