Features of the bird that indicate it being an Indigo rather than a
Lazuli Bunting include the widespread streaking on the breast, pale
buff distinct throat, uniform tawny-brown upperparts including the
rump, pale buff indistinct wing bars, and perhaps most importantly the
lack of a cinnamon wash on the breast.
Good birding,
