Connor Cochrane 3,346 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 (edited) Those are Evening Grosbeaks. They live further north and sometimes will come further south than normal when food is low up there, but your in Michigan, so you would probably get them most years.

Benjamin 764 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 One hell of an irruption this year. Got my lifer just last week! If finches continue at the rate they're going, we're in for a real treat with Crossbills, Evening Grosbeaks, and hopefully more. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
