[birdky] R-b Grosbeaks, Ovenbird

Late yesterday afternoon I sat for while in a lawn chair placed in the path 
leading through the Giant Ragweed patch in the corner of the backyard. It 
wasn't long before I spotted a female Rose-breasted Grosbeak, but I kept 
thinking I should have more payoff than one grosbeak for the summer long 
impression of sloth I have made on my neighbors by allowing such a large patch 
of ragweeds to grow. After a while I gave up and retreated from the ragweed 
patch. As I looked back one last time I spotted a flock of a dozen 
Rose-breasted Grosbeaks perched in the Walnut trees towering over the ragweed 
patch, just waiting for me to go away. 
  Also spotted an Ovenbird on our afternoon walk to the woods.
