Identity quiz of the week .... what is this bird?
I have never seen it before, I think I know what it is but I'm not 100% certain.

Denise, that Oriole is beautiful ... is that Audubon's Oriole? I have never seen one, awesome bird!
Indigo Bunting?
Definitely. From my iBird app:

I was about 99% sure right when I saw the picture. But then when I read "never seen it before" I started to have second thoughts, b/c I know you have posted Indigo Buntings in the past. I was thinking you were talking about species and not sex of the species. I see the females all the time at Creve Couer park up by St. Louis. The slightly odd thing about the one you posted is that her median covert (or is that greater) is whitish. They are typically pretty monotone besides the blue and some faint breast markings.
