Mega Rarity- Yellow Grosbeak
Twitched this bird after spending 1
1/2 hours sitting in the wind and cold in someone's back "yard". Birders
from all over the US have been driving and flying in to see it. This Mexican
bird is very rare in the US and has only been seen a few times previously. It
flew in, fed for 3 minutes and took off again. Super bird with a massive bill.
