Here are a couple of very beautiful birds that are native to the Eastern and Central U.S. during the summer (they migrate to South America for the winter). They are frequent visitors to birdfeeders...I actually took these photos right in my own backyard here in Minnesota.
The top photo is a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak (Pheucticus ludovicianus) (with this photo you can't really tell, but the bird's chest is bright red).
The lower photo is an Indigo Bunting (Passerina cyanea) which is one of the few bright blue birds on the planet.
