Blue Grosbeak
Day 197 / 365
A mother bird, a daddy bird and their baby bird were getting ready to migrate. The mother bird said, ” My instincts tell me to go north. ” The daddy bird said, ” My instincts tell me to go south. ” The baby bird said, ” My end stinks too, but it doesn’t tell me where to go! ”
Interesting Fact: Many Blue Grosbeaks migrate directly southward from their breeding areas to their wintering grounds. Western birds head over land and eastern birds cross the Gulf of Mexico. Migrating grosbeaks pass through the Caribbean Islands including Puerto Rico, the Bahamas, the Turks and Caicos Islands, the Antilles, the Swan Islands, the Cayman Islands, and the Virgin Islands.

Almost looks tropical. Such a beautiful coat, though I’m not sure if ‘coat’ is the proper term.
Yes it does look that way. I am not big on being by the book so the coat sounds just fine to me. I appreciate you stopping by and checking out my work. 🙂
