Evening Grosbeaks, like their friends the Crossbills and Pine Grosbeaks, have call types. Five, to be exact. And the Evening Grosbeaks of the Great North are a different call type than those that breed in the Sierra Nevada. Unfortunately, blogspot strips out website links, but if you search for "Evening Grosbeak Call Types", and hit the first link that pops up (earbirding . com, blog post #1601), you'll find a good article about it.MBradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16235144396251087463noreply@blogger.com
