Thanks to all who replied. It seems the consensus is that the bird is
an Indigo Bunting,

I went to Cumberland this morning and only had abut an hour so I decided to do something different and just sit and wait/watch. I parked near this big area of bushes and just sat. There was not much activity. I did see this bird that is in the first part of my pics that I could not ID. It had blue in it, but a weird shade. I asked a couple people and the ID is a Blue Grosbeak...maybe. The other pics are all just birds that visited the bushes while I was there.
