This is a gorgeous photo. I saw my first Tanager on a field trip this past weekend.
WOW. I've been trying to see a Scarlet Tanager for two years now. I'm hoping this is the year I get lucky.
I don't see White Crowned sparrows on your list. We have a TON up here in Door County. They are so cute, but they're eating EVERYTHING. We even saw one on the suet this morning. Crazy little birds. I really hope to see an indigo bunting before we leave WI, but that tanager is now one of my new "want to see" birds. Gorgeous!
