Blue Grosbeak (Passerina caerulea)
We decided to go over to the Agricultural History Farm Park late this afternoon. We enjoyed walking in the demonstration garden as well as seeing the dahlias. Then we walked down to the row of apple trees, a few of which were loaded with apples. On the way back up I took this picture of a female blue grosbeak (Passerina caerulea) on the corn. I thought it was a female goldfinch but when I went to confirm that, both Google and the Merlin app identified it as a grosbeak. I also got a nice shot of a female chipping sparrow (Spizella passerina, which Google misidentified but Merlin got right. And I got two shots of a male eastern bluebird (Sialia sialis), but he had his head turned away from me.
