Rose Breasted Grosbeak

by Terry Greenwood
(Windsor, Ontario, Canada)

I first saw the Rose Breasted Grosbeak feeding at my feeder about 2 years ago, and at the time I had no idea what kind of bird it was.

This year I started using sunflower seeds instead of the mixed seed, and on May 6th of this year I counted 11 male Rose Breasted Grosbeaks and 2 female Rose Breasted Grosbeaks in my yard all at once.

It's May 8th and every day my yard is filled with these birds.

I have video on YouTube if anyone cares to watch some video of these birds. My user name is ve3tmg - just search it and my videos will come up.

Showed up on May 20th, 2011 for the first time in my backyard.

I'm still waiting for more.

I will post a picture soon.

After 5 years
by: Anonymous

After 5 years of not seeing the Grossbeaks, they are finally back. I think it helped that I actually kept the feeder constantly supplied. I'm just using black sunflower seeds. Seems to attract several species.
