Carol and TN-birders,

I had a pair of evening grosbeaks at a feeder in Winfield, AL (Marion County) 
in late January 1996.  They arrived just ahead of a strong winter storm that 
shut down the area for 5 days.  Sadly, my feeder was empty at the time, and the 
birds left quickly, not to return.

Winfield is about 80 miles south of the TN-AL border.  All the evening 
grosbeaks I've seen reported on AL-birds (not many) were in the winter.
