In May of 2003 my wife and I were startled to see what appeared to be a
Grosbeak feeding on the ground beneath the sunny-seed feeder with the Rose
Breasted grossbeaks - the problem was the breast color was like that of a
robin. We have since determined that it was a Black-Headed Grosbeak. I know
we are far to the east of it's range but are wondering if there were other
reports of this bird (especially last spring).  We saw it for several days
but have not seen it since then.
