Pine Grosbeaks Surprise

February 3, 2013

We joined our family for skiing and lunch to Healy Lodge in Gatineau Park.  Recalling the crossbills seen last time, we were on the lookout for birds.  But all the time we were inside, we only saw Common Redpolls and a few American Tree Sparrows at the feeder.

 
But when we went to leave, there on the ground beneath the feeder, were several Pine Grosbeaks, including a gorgeous red male.
