Rose-breasted Grosbeak at one of the sunflower feeders this evening. Saw my first ever last year. Wonder if it is the same bird I saw last year on it's migratory path. One visit to the feeder. That was the first time I had ever seen one.

Because I am not home except on weekends, I have no way of knowing when I see migratory birds that are rare for me to see, if they have long passed this way and I am seeing them by chance, or if they are unusual sightings. I don't live on a migratory flyway.
