Grosbeak 2007
Last weekend I took a picture of a bird that I don't see very often - a rose-breasted grosbeak; I'd only seen one once before, When I went to look through old photos to figure out when I'd seen the last one - it turns out it was almost exactly one year ago. I suppose the grosbeaks may just pass through our area on the way to somewhere.....

Ive found that when we have used any mix with black oil sunflower seeds the birds waste everything besides the sunflower seeds.
The finches really enjoy the thistle seed, but then we end up with a yard full of thistles. :(
We have woodpeckers galore here in MD. Ive seen Downey Woodpeckers, big Red Headed Woodpeckers, Northern Flickers and really huge Pileated Woodpeckers. The pileated woodpeckers are very difficult to spot. You can often hear them but they are not easy to find.
Ive only seen the Grosbeaks in our yard once. They are beautiful birds.
