Hi Brian,

Correct that this is a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak. Not guaranteed that it
is actively molting, as some of the changes in appearance are due to brown
tips wearing off of otherwise black feathers.

Best birding,

Stefan

I’m pretty sure this is a Rose-breasted Grosbeak that’s in a molt, correct?
