Black-headed Grosbeak!



I had this beauty show up in my yard for 2 days only around August 7th! An exciting first-sighting for me!
OK, don't laugh but when I first saw him, I thought it was a Baltimore Oriole (which would be very rare in Colorado) and I immediately set out some orange halves. I couldn't figure out why he wasn't the least bit interested in them. I brought the photo to my local bird store and the nice lady set me straight, lol!
I learned something though....House Finches like oranges! So, of course I continued setting some out for them :)



Yummy!
