Re(3): 50 Pine Grosbeaks on Watson Dr today! Posted on February 5, 2019 at 05:46:53 AM by Darlene Deemert
Hi Bob. The majority of their diet are the seeds of the fruits on the plentiful ornamental pear trees here. They have little brown pea-sized fruits. This is the bulk of their diet. They eat from a couple of other trees a bit as well. I’d have to find the photo of one tree for Identification. They were also eating at the top of really mature deciduous forest trees behind Nicklaus Dr. Also, Spruce cones. Replies:
