While starting a lake-watch on Lake Ontario this morning, Dean DiTommaso and I heard the call of an Evening Grosbeak. We found two birds perched high in the neighbor's trees. Later, while watching the lake, we had five Evening Grosbeaks fly by, heading east. A little while after that, we heard, then saw six Grosbeaks at the neighbor's feeding station. Unfortunately, they were unable to get the seed out of the feeders. Nevertheless, we heard them throughout the rest of our time at the lake-watch in nearby trees, so I suspect they are still around. Apparently, they have not found our feeding station.
It was a nice flight on the lake this morning with an adult LITTLE GULL being the best bird. Good birding!
