Was getting ready for lunch and a flash of color caught my eye out the kitchen window. It was a rose breasted grosbeak headed for the feeder! They're pretty unusual to find around these parts and I've never had one in the backyard before.
just posted photo of a grosbeak. rarely see them, but just got new oriole/grosbeak feeder and he showed up 15minutes after putting it out! (didn't eat the fruit but i still thought it was funny) & your pic is definitely better! hope i see him again.
How exciting! Great capture of this handsome male, Milanie! They arrived here a few days ago, and we're enjoying them at the feeders. They stick around for a week or two, but then they usually move on; so they're a real treat while they're here!
Hope this surprise visit doesn't shock you so much. Looking through your album when I came across this wonderful bird. Need this guy for my life list. Hope all is well. I did not post as I don't get out much. Keep on clicking and I will pop in again.
