One of my reasons to travel out to Duluth this past weekend was to photograph winter finches. At a length of 9", the Pine Grosbeak is the largest of these finches and is one of the most colorful. Fortunately for me, we found a flock of at least 20 very cooperative Pine Grosbeaks at one of feeding station setup close to the road in the Sax-Zim Bog Area. Definately a species worth my braving Subzero Temperatures (-15 one morning) to photograph.
