I saw an interesting first today and am sharing it with the list.
Some springs, I see rose-breasted grosbeaks at my feeders. Other springs, I do not. I had not seen any this year until today, when five grosbeaks graced me with their presence. They all landed on my feeders at once--one female and four males. One of the males appeared to be in his first year--his rose chevon was quite pale and smaller compared to the other three males. Also, he was fed seed by both the female and one of the males. I've not seen this many grosbeaks at once, and only once before have I seen a less than one-year-old male.
