I’ve photographed evening grosbeaks before but was never able to get decent shots. I saw quite a few of them last weekend in Minnesota. This is the male. Females only have a small bit of the yellow and are more uniformly grey. Nikon D500 with Nikkor 500mm PF lens, ISO 400, f/5.6 at 1/4000th of a second.
‘Evening Grosbeak’ is more family friendly way of saying “Grosbeak of the night.” I greatly appreciate your efforts to take this blog out of the gutter Sean.

Wonderfule capture. I’ve only been able to get the rose-breasted so far.
Pretty bird. To bad he lives in such cold weather!
It’s so wonderful to see a shock of any color in the trees during drab winter months. Beautiful shot!
Agree! Great shot, Sean.
