In all of my 42 years I've never seen a bird that looks like this.
He sat on top of the birdhouse for a very long time. He even let me get pretty close to him to take some pictures. Then he decided to go inside the birdhouse to eat.
This bird is called a rose breasted grosbeak. You can click here if you would like to read a little more about the species.
The information said he was a common bird ... funny thing is ... I've never, ever seen one before yesterday.
I guess we were at the right place at the right time.
Happy Mother's Day Weekend ...
How awesome! You get some of the neatest birds at your feeder. Me, I would get chickens. Oh wait I get chickens without a feeder, lol. I just love these pictures when you share them. Happy Mother's Day to you!
