I live in western New York state in Chautauqua County near Lake Erie. My home sits in an open area surrounded by fields and hardwood forest. Each early May the grosbeaks arrive to nest and raise their young. I put out ample supplies of black oil sunflower seed on two deck mount platform feeders and also on three hanging platform feeders in the nearby apple and pear trees.
After raising their first broods, the initial dozen or so arrivals soon bring their young to the seed feeders and in late June I have counted over thirty-eight grosbeaks at my feeders!
I look forward to their arrival each spring!
