Rose breasted grosbeak

I've never had these at my feeders before this year. I've had a slew of them tonight. Absolutely gorgeous. Anyone else getting these this year?

Nope but tell me where you live again... maybe I can come and photograph them....

Ashland City/Pleasant view Eric. I get alot of wildlife out here. I've seen only one Indigo Bunting since i've been out here (only one i've ever seen), but that was something else. Absolutely beautiful bird. Irridescent green/blue like a junebug all over. Turkey family's come up to the feeders as well. Hawk's swoup down on occasion to snag cardinals when it gets colder. Had a 6 to 8-pointer (i forget) one morning stretched out trying to get some grain. One reddish fox squirrel i've seen, but only once. That was a crazy animal. Many other unusual birds as well (i'm rambling)....your welcome anytime man. Dusk and dawn are the best times.
