Hi,

Sunday morning (7/6) in Depoe Bay, Lisa Gallegos found a male
Red-breasted Grosbeak at one of her feeders.

This is the second Lincoln Co. report since mid-May.   Michael & Sally
Noack saw and photographed a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak at their
feeder at  Fox Creek, about 1 mile south of Seal Rocks on May 28.

In Lincoln Co., we have been getting about 2-5 reports of
Rose-breasteds in May-July each year in recent years.  For Lincoln Co.
records of them since 1992, see http://bit.ly/1jj5l2t or search for
"Rose-breasted Grosbeak" in the search box at the top of
http://yaquina.info/ybn/bird/bird.htm

They appear to becoming more regular, but only 2 records this year
suggests that they are still uncommon to rare.  Their status may be
changing but time will tell!
