For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he
might be Lord both of the dead and the living....Romans 14:9
-----------------------------------------------------------------
A male breasted rose Grosbeak
Rested taking a break...
As he got a grip
On the situation...
Waiting to be revived,
O'er this end
Of the migration;
While his female friend
Had a bite to eat
After their long trip.
How well they survived
Their travels earthly,
Paving life's journey...
Poetry by me, AJP
The male and female rose breasted Grosbeaks breed in cool-temperate North America, migrating to tropical America in winter. They are back now eating seeds from our feeder.
I caught the male patiently waiting on the branch for his mate to get done eating:)

He is so beautiful! Great capture, Andrea! For the first time, this year we saw a female, but I didn't get to photograph her. She ate at our feeders for a couple of days. She must have been migrating North.
