Evening Grosbeak captured by Z 8 / Z600f4
A little bit faded and worst for the wear, our giant flock of Evening Grosbeaks have returned from their nesting grounds to the north. It’s another sign that fall is just around the corner for us (which I’m just not ready for). Their early return kinda took us by surprise being run out of seed almost instantly causing us to make a run to the feed store. Probably more important to them has been the water feature where they spend a lot of their time with the heat wave going through. As I write this, there is about thirty just in the platform at the office window watching us, they are everywhere. So finding a “nice” place to photograph them that’s not “end of the summer green” has been made easier with there being so many. It’s so nice to hear them, they’re back!
