They visit every year around this time… mostly.  Sometimes, not.  When they do, it generates smiles and gets noted in the book on their page.  So yesterday, totally unexpectedly, the Rose Breasted Grosbeaks returned to the bird feeder.  They’ll hang around for a few days and then probably head farther north.   It’s a pleasure and delight to welcome them to the neighborhood and enjoy them for a time.  Yesterday’s gift.  Unexpected delight!
