This Colourful Bird Crossed our Path

 In our Secret Place, this bird just crossed our path and I was lucky enough to snap a shot of it soon enough for you to get an idea of what kind of bird he is.
But aren't photos wonderful!!!!When I downloaded in onto the computer and I could look more closely at it and cropped him out for you, you get such a better look than you would with the human eye.

Now he stayed in one place long enough that one of us got this photo of him in the tree so you get an even better idea of what this bird is. We also did see his female mate, but we were not quick enough to catch her with our camera to make her out. They sing like robins.
This is the red-breasted Grosbeak. We have seen them a # of times since this first photo
which was taken the beginning of May 2012.
