Evening Grosbeak

["Jim Bailey" <jim at bailey dot aros dot net>]

Hi,

Judy & I had dinner with my older brother and his wife from New York 
this evening at the Silver Fork Lodge up Big Cottonwood Canyon. We dined 
out on the deck at the southeast corner table. All of the feeders were 
well stocked, which made for an excellent display of tame Pine Siskins, 
Broad-tailed Hummers, and occasional Cassin's Finch. Also on hand was a 
male Evening Grosbeak.

The grosbeak only showed up 3 times over the course of a couple of 
hours, so you may have to invest in a meal to see him. BTW the meal (and 
ambience) was excellent. It was also nice to get out of the 95 degree 
Salt Lake weather. What a delightful place!
