Awesome! Thanks!

Is this my female Rose-breasted Grosbeak, then?

Thanks! He must seem bigger to me in the photo. Appreciate it!

I got this one shot and thought it might be the female Rose-breasted Grosbeak since I had been taking some shots of the male at the feeder. Obviously, not a gros beak. Kind of thrasher-ish? I've had buntings and orioles in the yard, but no match! IMG_3210.CR2

Thanks! I appreciate it!

I have lots of House Wrens during the Summer in the bird houses and at the feeders, but I have never noticed them in the Winter. I understand they move south of here. Is this a Carolina Wren? The long supercilium and buffy-orange underneath makes me think so. January 30, 2022, in Davenport, Iowa. It's 23 degrees outside with snow on the ground.
