    This afternoon I saw my first of the season male Rose-breasted Grosbeak. It 
flew from a sunflower feeder at The Honors golf course in Ooltewah and sat in a 
small leafless tree until I got tired watching it. This is my favorite of the 
migrating birds. Last spring it seemed that everyone had more eating at feeders 
than ever. Some believed it was because the late freeze killed most of the buds 
they normally eat. It will be interesting to see if everyone has as many this 
year.
