Male Indigo Bunting at Barka Slough, Santa Barbara County, CA
Observation details
Male on territory around the 3.37 mile marker of San Antonio Road. This is the same location a pair of males were seen in spring/summer 2012. Male unmistakable blue color without any wing bars or other contrasting features. First detected by it's song where I quickly located it singing from a willow-riparian area off the road. It flew across to the opposite side of the road and continued to sing from exposed perches. I was able to photograph it repeatedly and record video of it singing:
