More Evening Grosbeaks for Mellow Yellow Monday


                                           The frontal view of the female evening Grosbeak does not show much yellow in this bird's plumage, however the back view  ( shown below) of the female Evening Grosbeak does show yellow!

      This handsome male shows off its bright yellow plumage and its yellow forehead visor is very 'winter-like'.  I think his colouring is beautiful!




I am always very thrilled when this species drops by Bird Alley.  In my opinion they don't visit often enough!  They are still around though; yesterday I saw only one  lone female Grosbeak  in a tree in the alley.  We are in the midst of a snowfall this morning so maybe the small flock of them will drop by for a snack.  I certainly hope so!

 Got pictures with yellow?
