Through the Window: May 2026

Rose-breasted Grosbeak male: a chunky songbird with a black head, a pinkish-read "bib-and-tie" and a white chest and belly. Her his perched on a branch facing the viewer, although his head is turned to his right. Other thin branches are visible, and a bright blue sky is behind him.
A Veery stands adjacent to a nest with pale blue eggs. The life-like woodcarving is a small mostly brown bird carved and painted by Bob Spear, as are the eggs. The nest is real. The green fern behind the bird is made of painted metal, but also looks real.
