Always a treat to see the Rose Breasted Grosbeak on their migration. The Cornell site is wonderful, and I enjoy supporting it. It has helped me so much in identifying birds that are incidental to may area. My next door neighbor and I have very different habitats though we are right next door. (span of about 13 acres combined). We are very wooded (hardwoods) with some yard. He is large yard and a pond. Together we have a haven for several distinctive birds with preferred environments.
Habitat is everything. Sounds like you have loads of it. Love Cornell.
Very informative. 😊
Enjoying all your videos. Thanks for the wonderful information. I have a quick question. I’m sorry it’s not about these particular birds. It’s just your latest video you put up.
Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoy the videos.
Its been a treat to find your channel the last of couple of days, thank you so much for sharing so much helpful information ( subscribed)
Thank you Kathy. Welcome to the channel!
I agree! We have many Rose breasted Grosbeaks & cardinals in our woods/and yard. A blessing!
@@birdgirl1516 Beautiful!
OK I have lots of hummingbirds this year. I have seven feeders, and there is Minnie on each one. A Bluejay swooped down and took a hummingbird. Have you heard of this happening before? If so, is there tips that I can do to keep them safe .. thanks so much
Wow. I haven't heard of a Blue Jay doing that. I don't know if there really is any way to protect against that. The hummers are such skilled flyers they generally don't have to worry about other birds.
