This morning I watched a male Evening Grosbeak feeding in a tree in the wooded gully just west of Liddell Lab, along Freese Road. There were robins, cardinals, and a flock of waxwings in the tree as well, but I easily could have walked past the grosbeak (especially with the fog!) had it not called several times to give itself away. Other birds of note this morning were a pair of ravens, and a Vesper Sparrow (along the east side of the Equine Research Park woods).
