I agree with Rick Phillips' Scarlet Tanager call. The size and shape of the bill. The dark wings. The overall shape and color. The size of the bird as relayed by Ron Harrington.

Does not use the feeders. Picture was taken today, October 30. Can you identify? They describe the color as greenish-yellow, size about that of a cardinal. Thanks.

It should be back and I'll try again. Thanks for your interest. John -- Rick Phillips Kingsport, Tennessee
