Evening Grosbeak for Mellow Yellow Monday





The breast of this female Evening Grosbesk is actually gray with a touch of yellow near its shoulders, but the bright early morning light really enhanced and enriched the yellowish tones. This is not a frequent bird sighting but this morning a small flock of Robins were feeding on our mountain ash berries and this female Evening Grosbeak joined in on the feast. It was a welcome sighting.

Happy Monday to all. To view a wonderful variety of yellow-themed photos from other bloggers around the world, just click on the link below
