Rare Bird: Female Painted Bunting

We were very excited to see this beautiful bird who showed up in our garden on January 22nd. She was here throughout the day on January 23rd and early in the morning on January 24th. She had olive green back and wings, and yellowish underparts, with a pale eye ring and large beak. She stayed on the ground under the feeders and shrubs. She was similar in size to the House Sparrows.
