Rose-breasted Grosbeak on Green

DSC_0103 Rose-breasted grosbeak-kab

I Photographed this male Rose-breasted Grosbeak recently at a friend’s house in Androscoggin County, Maine. When reviewing my photos I was so impresses with how lush and green the surroundings are that I wrote a poem and illustrated it with all the recent birds I have seen surrounded by green! You can see the birds and read the poem over at

Birding is Fun!

More birds and posts to follow now that Chris Rohrer has gone home and I have time to think and write!

    They are so gorgeous. I wished they would stay here in Bluff Country for the summer but we do see a spring migration...::)

    PS. That is an epic shot!! What a gorgeous bird! I was so sure we'd see one in Maine! Weird that I saw one in Arizona. That wasn't how it was supposed to work out:)
