The bird was confirmed as a Western Tanager. It returned yesterday in the snow
and rain several times and several photographs were obtained. I have not heard
of its status today. I tried to see the bird through garage windows yesterday
with no luck. I did hear it singing in the tall aspens in the back woods. The
song was much like a robins..only faster with a courser quality too it. The
homeowners wish to keep their yard private. The feeders are not visible from
the road, and very close to the house..only viewing is from inside garage or
house.
I will post pictures as soon as they forward them to me. Thanks to those who
gave info regarding previous WETA records in St Louis Cty.
Also had a Rose-breasted Grosbeak looking sad in the snow at my feeders this AM
a FOY for the yard.
Regards
Don Kienholz
