I've been reading with envy all the posts from those with Rose- breasted Grosbeaks at their feeders. Oh well...... (I thought!)

Then ...... while talking with friends this afternoon on our screen porch, I spotted an American Redstart about 20 feet from the porch flying around in the understory. Watched him for about 15-20 minutes around 4 pm. One of our friends is a birder so she understood my excitement.

This is a first I've spotted this bird in my yard!
