Indigo Bunting

The bright blue of the Indigo Bunting breeding male is sure to attract attention. And so does its melodious song. The brownish female sees to homemaking duties, building nests and incubating eggs. Photographer Paul Nelson followed the migratory patterns of North American birds to capture a one-of-a-kind glimpse of their natural and captivating movements as they take off for flight. Paul takes the photographs using a portable high-speed camera rig he specifically designed for this project. His portrayal of birds in their natural habitats without the distraction of complex backgrounds strikes a balance that is both beautiful and intimate.
