W. F. Aiken writes from Cherry

beaks are visiting there this winter.
These birds are sporadic visitors to
Maine, but are seldom seen as far
east as this. A few years ago a
large flock spent several weeks in
Ellsworth. Mr.. Aiken writes:
In front of the house where
live is a large crabapple tree. The
fruit is very small and remains on
the tree all winter. During the en-
tire month of February quite large
flock of evening grosbeaks fed off the
fruit. picking the seeds and enjoying
them. First came a small flock of
pine grosbeaks, one male, color,
Indian red with slate colored trim
mings, and four or five females,
color, a grey mixed with a bit of
white on wings. These birds were
very tame.
Then the evening grosbeaks ap-
peared. large flock, say fifteen.
There were several males. color.
black heads, yellow bodies, and black
wings, with a pronounced white bill
The females were a light grey. with
quite bit of white on their wings.
The evening grosbeaks weren't quite
as tame as the pine grosbeaks.
Both groups of birds fed together
amicably, and it was pretty sight
These birds hardly uttered a note
while feeding, but upon arising from
the tree gave out subdued whistle.
