After a strong thunderstorm in NE Oklahoma City, I noticed a beautifully colored bird on my feeder. Having never seen this bird before, I looked it up in my Audubon field guide and it turns out to be a painted bunting!! I was so excited and thought I would not see it again. This afternoon it reappeared and I was able to take a few pictures of it. What can I expect next?
