Evening Grosbeaks


Lately, we've had unusual visitors to our birdfeeders. These birds seem so exotic compared to the usual brown, grey and blue around here. Today I counted at least eleven of them, some juveniles and some adult males and females. Also, the Blackheaded Grosbeaks are here, too. They are black and orange and also very flashy. I tried to take my own photos of these birds but I couldn't get close enough for my camera to do them justice so I used one from the web. It's been fun watching them. They are very loud and eat a lot! I had to go refill the feeder after they left. If you get a chance, you should look them up on the internet to see some really great pictures of these beautiful birds.
