For about two weeks I had both a male and female Rose breasted Grosbeak come by my feeder but now only the female comes.

I think it's because this guys keep hogging the feeder house.

Don't need to watch TV, just look out the window to see all the drama.

Our large kitchen window faces the backyard, where all the action happens, and we say that all the time, "Its better then TV!"   :D
