I got lucky today, there were tons of birds at the feeders and many I could not I.D. This male EGB came along with a female who is on the other side of the feeder.

Those are my favorite grosbeaks, hands down. Nice captures. I especially like the angles of composition in the first one.

Hi,
You got lucky today????
you seem to get lucky a lot of days :)
I love #1, what a great catch, often birds on feeders take away a little from a shot, but in this photo with the angle and bird in the bg it adds,
excellent colors & sharpness, IMHO a little more room at the tail.
Regards,
Clare

Great shots, seems like grosbeaks are the birds to shoot these days.

Excellent work Paul, I rarely see grossbeaks and you have them taking turns at the feeder (green w/ envy).;)

Awesome Dude!

These are out of this world. I especially love the second one, that close up is great and full of details. Not the best angle, but cool! Thanks for sharing these.
