This male Rose-breasted Grosbeak stopped on a perch near a feeder at my son-in-law's back yard in Orford, Quebec in June. What a beautiful bird! I saw a male several times over a three-week period but never saw the female. I can't help but wonder if she had nest duty. Cropped vertically from a landscape format image.

Sadly my bird bath and feeder attracts nothing but feral Sparrows and Ringneck Doves.
Beautiful little birdn Tom, and so lucky to have it visit the yard, cropping to vertical was a good idea, sits in the frame very nicely and a lovely smooth green backdrop to compliment such a sweet looking bird
