Rose-breasted Grosbeak

May 24, 2021

The Rose-breasted Grosbeak is near to an annual regular at our place in Portuguese Cove. It usually stays for two or three days and then moves on looking for the mature hardwood forests.

If you think this adult male is handsome just wait until you stand near it when it bursts into song. You'll be looking for your socks after that experience. The song is akin to an American Robin that has taken singing lessons.

Photos are taken through windows. This is a motivator to keep the glass clean.
