Kathy, You nailed that one! It's a Blue Grossbeak. They do come to feeders sometimes. We have had then before, usually just one for a while as in your case. I think one discovers the feeder and sticks around for several days.

I have never had one at a feeder before. He is very skittish so it took a while just to get this photo (such as it is). He has been figuring out the bird feeder - at first he seemed drawn to it because of the other birds, but it took a couple of days before he figured out how to perch and get seeds very well. Thanks for your help! Kathy Kreutzer Chesterfield
