I am just back from Blendon Woods Metro Park in Franklin County. I left about 3:50 after having seen the male Blue Grosbeak for about 5 minutes. He is being seen from the Nature Center window. He is flitting about fairly high in the trees and is NOT coming to the feeders like the many Rose-breasted Grosbeaks that are present. While I did not have my own binoculars with me I used some from the park and was finally able to get a clear sighting of the bird's rufous wing patch. Good Birding!
