Evening grosbeak

Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada, Nov 2, 2020.


Usually these birds move in flocks, but we have just one in the yard. It has been around for several days now.
Coccothraustes vespertinus
The Evening Grosbeak is a songbird without a song—that is, it does not seem to use any complex sounds to attract a mate or defend its territory. It does have a small repertoire of simple calls, including sweet, piercing notes and burry chirps.
