I didn't see any Pine Grosbeaks between 1:45pm to 3:00pm (probably Sunday family time, or scared of the skiiers), but I found this bird came out from the woods around 2:30pm to feed on the berries on the tree adjacent to the Grosbeaks' favourite berry tree.

I didn't intend to capture more BC Chickadees (too many and too common), but I couldn't resist a clean close-up shot like this one.

I love how they stretch their bodies completely, especially the legs to reach for the berries!
Every Sunday, I attempted to look for them at around 2-3 pm, but with no luck. This time, I showed up at around 1:45pm after my disappointing Morinville trip. They showed up at exactly 2pm on the berry tree. I also met Ken for the first time.
