Image description

This beautiful bird is merely a winter visitor of the United States,' wrote Audubon, 'where it is seldom seen before the month of November, and whence it retires as early as the beginning of February. It wanders at times along the sea coast, as far as Georgia ... in Massachusetts and Maine it is far more abundant than in any other parts of the Union.
