bunting

Any of a number of sturdy, finchlike birds with short, thick bills, of the family Emberizidae, order Passeriformes, especially the genera Passerim and Emberiza. Most of these brightly coloured birds are native to the New World.

The indigo bunting Passerina cyanea is a native of the USA and frequents open spaces. It is about 13 cm/5 in long. The adult male is a beautiful blue colour, whilst the female and young are bluish-grey. It has a sweet song, similar to that of a canary, with notes of different pitches uttered in pairs.
