A strange occurrence - I was carefully photographing a Blue-winged Teal when I heard a distinctive song behind me. After hearing and seeing many Rose-breasted Grosbeaks in Ontario last week, it occurred to me the song might actually be this species, which I've not seen in 28 years. Sure enough, he came out of heavy shrubbery just long enough for a quick snap, then he was gone. Iona regional park, Richmond, BC.
