Bird weighing 11.2–21.4 g. Migratory. Lives in forests and in thickets. Feeds on seeds. Forages on the ground. The male and the female do not look alike. That is often what explains two very different birds in photos of the same species.
There are 9,566 observations of Indigo Bunting in Québec, mostly in Outaouais, Montérégie and Laurentides, and it has been reported in every region. They peak from May to July and become rare from October to April.
