Rose-breasted Grosbeak

Pheucticus ludovicianus

Habitat:

This grosbeak was singing from the tops of trees at the abandoned apple orchard, not a conservation property, Heald Orchard.

Notes:

In these pictures, the grosbeak was facing away from me, singing his heart out. A few times, he flipped upside down (first pic) and once turned his head to look behind (second pic). I think that was his way of keeping an eye on me:-)

He reminded me of a parrot the way he almost swung under the branch:-)
