lovely clear image, Carol. very pretty. Am not sure if it's a grosbeak tho', - looks very much like a female purple finch in my bird book -- at first I thought it might be a song sparrow, but yours has spots whereas the song sparrow's more streaked. Let me know what you find out.

Great shot, Carol, crystal clear. It really brings out the subtle beauty of the plumage.
