Black-headed Grosbeak #5465

White Rock, NM

Pheucticus melanocephalus

Another new bird! We see both Evening Grosbeaks and Black-headed Grosbeaks fairly commonly in this area, with Pine Grosbeaks and Blue Grosbeaks much less often. The males and females differ significantly in their plumage, but the distinct markings on the face of this first-year male bird are hard to miss -- I have not seen any adult males yet, but I'll be on the lookout.
