I very unexpectedly had a visit from a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak in my
back yard this afternoon, foraging under my bird feeder. I was outside
sitting not too close but with a clear view of this gorgeous bird (no
camera on me, alas). It foraged for about ten minutes until the antics
of my local squirrel adversary annoyed it enough to fly up to the
nearest tree branch. Next time I looked it was gone. This is my first
sighting in Colorado.
Our house is in the old Sunstream filing, west of Wadsworth and right
off Independence, south of Dry Creek and several blocks east of Standley
Lake.
Glorious visit! Really made my day.

Tucker Gulch in Golden had really good birds this morning. Male
Rose-breasted Grosbeak, singing Northern Parula, Western Tanager,
Lazuli Bunting, Bullock’s Oriole and tons of Yellow-rumped Warblers.
Got photos of the Rose-breasted Grosbeak and the Northern Parula.
Also, a short recording of the Northern Parula all on my list.

Wonder what will show up next at this great spot.
