Yes, my homemade backyard feeder did it again, drawing in another interesting bird.
So here’s a quick bird identification quiz. Seasoned birders will get it immediately. Intermediate birders may take a second, but will eventually get it. Beginning birders, if they haven’t seen one before, may be surprised at the answer (which is coming up tomorrow morning.)
Do you know it already? Awesome.
Need a hint? That’s fine, too. Here are a few hints:
It’s not a big sparrow.
It looks nothing likes its male counterpart.
Look at the bulky bill.
Send your guesses (or requests for more hints) to bozclark@earthlink.net, or just lock in your guess in your head and wait for the answer tomorrow.
Thanks for playing along.
Its a female Red Breasted Grosbeak…..
