Hello Tweeters,
I this returned from a trip to the Ocean. I was exoecting some NEWS on
tweeter from the Rose-breasted Grosbeak.Since it was sighted in Seattle
where are lot's of birders live, i expected that some of the birders there
would check it out.This would be as good of sightings than the Hooded
Oriole in Joyce. So is there any news on it what some one can share???????
Report on our Ocean trip will follow.
