Grosbeaks on my feeder
theres a group of about 6 living in the woods behind our fence. they must really like the new food.

Im not sure what the brown guy is, i think he may be a juvenile. If you have any better idea, let me know!

4. Very colorful birds
Again, I am in a part of Texas that doesn't get these too often, but just a little east and they are there.

5. I had three males visiting my feeder just a few weeks ago!
Funny how the males seem to stick together.

They are just gorgeous! I had never seen them before. I'm just outside of Philly. Where are you located?

Thx for posting this, btw!
