This amazing songbird spends its winters in South America, well south of the equator. It normally travels at least 6,000 miles one way during migration. This guy may have come from as far away as Argentina!

Rose-breasted Grosbeak
At least nine different Rose-breasted Grosbeaks were at the feeders in our yard today (five were male and four female).
