[obol] Yet another female Black-headed Grosbeak

[Nancy Brown]

I have twice seen a female Black-headed Grosbeak at the feeders in my backyard in NE Portland the past week. The first time she was trying to land on a feeder (rather depressingly) constantly occupied by female House Finches, and one particular feisty Finch would not let her land. I was urging her from inside the house to use that 'gross beak' and fight back, but to no avail.
