Post them as they arrive and you spot them. (If you've already seen them - post them and get caught up)
I saw my first
rose-breasted grosbeak of the season this morning.
Female dining on safflower seeds at my feeder for a good 3-4 minutes!

She's been around all morning. Call me sexist, but I really wish her boyfriend would show up. He's much easier on the eyes.

Good thread, Kelly! I get excited about my sightings every spring!

The male RB Grosbeak is around now.
I'll probably put the hummingbird feeder out today. The oriole feeder has been out for a couple of weeks, but haven't seen any yet. Brenda, have you seen orioles yet?

Nope, no orioles yet. I've had a few towhees that have made me look twice though!
I've had my hummingbird feeders up for for just over a week now, but no sightings yet. The migration
map shows that they've been spotted upstate...

Cool. My mom has reported her towhees back as well. There must be something about my yard they don't like. I've never seen one here.
