They are back

The Rose Breasted Grosbeak are back in town. They arrived a little over a week ago but I have been unable to take pictures because they are very shy in nature. These photos were taken as I stood high on a stool at the kitchen window.
Just like other species of birds they have their own dining time and after you get the time down, you can catch them at the feeder. 
They usually stick around until the weather gets too warm for them. I am so very happy that they have not forgotten where we live. I usually start feeding only safflower seeds this time of year but that seed is really too small for those magnificent beaks so I will continue to put out sunflower until they continue on their journey. 
The Kitty Justice is I think it is wonderful that we are a stop over for these Pretty Birds. I do believe their outfits lend them to be going to a fancy ball. Could it be the Swan Ball at Cheekwood? If so no other males will be as handsome.
