We seldom get them in St. Peter's at all! As Randy said, years ago
they would appear in large flocks!

Grosbeaks used to dominate feeders with their huge flocks. Even though
I've had them almost every year, they are almost always in depressing
numbers...fewer than 10 per visit, often only a pair or two.

November to early April), though the number of individuals goes down for
