Male Rose Breasted Grosbeak, Mars, PA
So elegant in your tuxedo
with your bold and bright red tie.
You sing such sweet melodies
as you spread your wings and fly.
You grace us with your beauty
as you come to eat some seed.
We put it there to nourish you,
but it is our hearts that you feed.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

Beautiful picture, great last line.

They are so strikingly beautiful! We have a whole family hanging out. The little girls are so cute. The females are brown – you can tell they are related by shape of beak and face, but colors are strikingly different. The females are clothed in camo. The beauty of nature that protects them 🙂

Enjoyed this. Great photo – these birds only grace me with their presence for a week or so during migration, so I am always thrilled to see one.

They are my hubby’s fave. We have a whole family hanging out. They come every year all summer. They were a bit late this year it seemed, so hubby was really happy when they showed up 🙂 Yep – we are backyard bird nerds too! LOL!
