[Maine-birds] pine grosbeaks and tree sparrows

About 18 pine grosbeaks in the fruit trees in front of the Augusta armory today. Unfortunately there was also one dead in the snow under the tree. I  wonder if it flew into the traffic on Western Ave. and got hit, something I have worried about whenever I see them in landscape plantings in high traffic areas.

On a happier note, I had five American tree sparrows in my friend's yard on Church Hill Road this morning.
