Hi All,
Dr Clint Sutherland took this photo today of a Rose-breasted Grosbeak at his 
home on Hobbs Branch near Grundy using his daughter's digital camera.

Thanks Clint for the photo.

Grosbeaks are showing up all across the Eastern U.S. in places they haven't 
been see before. One theory is that the increase may be due to the recent 
freeze, which may have killed the foliage eating insects and the buds and other 
natural foods that grosbeaks eat. Because they can't find their food in the 
trees they are finding it at feeders, so keep your feeders stocked. The 
grosbeaks need it.
