Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Pheucticus lodovicianus; Horse Cove, Alabama |
Rose-breasted Grosbeaks are passing through North Alabama at
this time. I saw the first grosbeak on
Thursday. I shot this handsome fellow
this afternoon a little before sunset. I
get to enjoy these birds for only a couple of weeks during the spring as they
head north to their nesting grounds.
They will return in September on their way south, but will not look this
good.
