Thanks for the ID! We’ve got one in Hendersonville, NC today – 2-18-2020
Saw one today . At 5pm on ground below feeder. O’Fallon Missouri.
There are 4 of these on the ground at our feeders right now! Not a usual guest. Brought out by the snow perhaps?
There are 4 of these on the ground at our feeders right now in Northern Durham NC! Not a usual guest. Brought out by the snow perhaps?
We have 3 in Morgantown WV on 3/18/2020
We have one in Bristol, RI. First time I’ve seen one!
I have one (immature male) in Boston, MA. He came to my feeder many times yesterday and returned twice this morning so far..
I have one that comes to my house multiple times a day and yells and yells until I come out and sing to him and talk and then he devours food gron my feeder. 🤗 Do they commonly want to interact with humans?? This one is becoming my very close friend. Haha
Had a young male here up in the North country on Mother’s Day First one I’ve seen here 🥰
Several here today 518/20 Conway, Ar
We finally figured out what these are…we are familiar with the mature meadow singers here in Iowa, but have never had one at the feeders. (We had quite the argument trying to figure out if a white shouldered tanager had been blown off course.) I’m so glad I found this thread.
One visited my feeder today. All black with white wing bar. Cleveland Ohio. 5/19/2020 The females have been at my feeder constantly this past few weeks. Now I know why!
Had about 20 of these in our yard this morning, below our bird feeder. We see these every year about this time, but weren’t sure what they were. Noblesville, In.
Had about eight of these at our feeder this morning (2/25/2022) in Westfield, NY. Never noticed them at our feeder prior to this.
Have one on my feeder table now, 03/02/22. A young male, and possibly a younger female. I need to see photos yet, of a younger female.
Just had a group of these young’uns at the feeder! 03/06/22. North Haven, CT No red visible yet on their wings while at rest.
Had 3 on our feeder this morning first ever college Station tx
Just had this bird on my feeder in St. Albans, WV! Hope he comes back; he was beautiful and what a nice morning surprise!
Have one at my feeder now. April 27, Madison, Wisconsin
I have about seven of these at my feeder this morning. In Mt. Juliet, Tennessee. I’ve never seen any young ones. Their red is not as bright as the fully mature ones.
There are seven at my feeder in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee.
Flock of 23 at my feeder in Pound Ridge NY this afternoon. Mixed in with several cowbirds
