Re: [cobirds] Rose-breasted Grosbeak, central Bldr Cnty & other news

Just to remind everybody: female orioles sing frequently. So do female cardinals and grosbeaks. In fact, females sing at least rarely in most passerine species. So beware of assuming that a bird is a male just because it's singing! Nathan Pieplow Boulder On Fri, May 25, 2018 at 8:10 AM, Linda
