We had a bumper crop of visitors in the backyard today! A Rose-breasted Grosbeak (female), a Catbird (first time I've seen one in our backyard) and our resident Red-bellied Woodpecker. Of course after I put this collage together three more standouts showed up- the Red-headed Woodpecker and Mr. and Mrs. Cardinal- so you'll get to see their pictures on another day.
I would not have known that was the female Grosbeak - so different from the male. Every now and then I'll see a bird and decide it must be a female something because the colors are not like something I've seen. Like her markings.
Mr. & Mrs. Grosbeak have visited my feeder this week, too. I only saw the female once, but the male stayed at the feeder a lot two days ago. Haven't seen either since.
@randystreat Thanks Kathy! They are occasional visitors for me. I see them for about a week and then they're gone. But I've only seen the female so far.
