Friends, I have been reluctant to post this because I thought it was so transitory, but we've had a black-headed grosbeak for about a month. He comes sporadically, but usually we see him in the mornings about breakfast and shortly before lunch. I am pretty sure he is elsewhere in the neighborhood (University Acres of Baton Rouge, about a mile south of LSU) because he's showed up on Merlin during our walks. As far as I can tell he is all by himself.
 If anyone wants to try to sit on our back porch and see him please contact me off-list. Thanks,Michael Cavanaugh
