Big year for finches.  Drove up to Royalston, MA yesterday morning to see a flock of evening grosbeaks.

50+ birds were hanging in the trees made the trip worthwhile.

Following the Boxborough Birders tip, went to Cisco this morning to check out the pine grosbeaks.  They were in the fruit trees as advertised.  About 8 females.  No males.  Ladies brunch I guess.
