Still trying to stump Blake!! Will this be the one? I doubt it, but hey, it’s worth a shot.
As always…for all correct quiz answers, at the end of each month, I’ll draw a random name from all correct answers for a winner of a free 8×10 photo of his/her choice.
ANSWER: Female Rose-breasted Grosbeak.





Wow, great quiz. This took me a long time, and I’m still not sure that I am right. My guess is Rose-breasted Grosbeak. I was all over the place on this (Greyish Saltator, Five-striped/Black-throated Sparrows, a brief consideration of female grackles…). Good quiz, now I can’t wait to see if I’m right.
Whoops, forgot to post the whole-bird photo and update as I put in the new quiz. Will do that later. The answer is indeed a female Rose-breasted Grosbeak.
