So yesterday around noon (about the same time I saw the male) I saw a female rose-breasted grosbeak at the feeder. I took a picture this time.

A rose-breasted grosbeak was at my feeder this morning. I’ve only seen one other – at my feeder too, a few years ago.
The weather is finally warm enough to keep the windows open at night. My favorite part of open windows is being awakened to birdsong in the mornings.
I always think of the first track on side two of Kate Bush’s Aerial when I hear the birds singing in the morning and say, to myself — or out loud is someone is in the room, “The day is full of birds”.
Mummy…
Daddy…
The day is full of birds
Sounds like they’re saying words.
If you’ve not checked out Kate’s website, do so now. Especially if you like birds.
