I was actually trying to shoot the Oriole pair from a blind in my backyard when this Indigo bunting showed up to have a turn at the oranges. This was a new bird for my backyard. The shot of them together really shows the difference in size of these birds.

Canon 10d, 400mm 2.8IS, f6.3, 1/400sec, ISO400, Wimberely head.

It does really show the size difference. I like the oriole upside down, it gives a nice juxtaposition to the bunting.
