Rose-Breasted Grosbeak Taking a Dip

As my wife and I were getting lunch today, this beauty was noticed taking a bath in our water garden.  So, I grabbed my camera and snapped this photo quickly before it flew away.

We had not seen this type of bird before, so I looked it up online and found that it was a rose-breasted grosbeak, a songbird that typically spends its summers in the north-central and north-eastern U.S.A. and Canada, and it’s winters in Yucatan and north-western South America.  We live in its migratory path and how fortunate we were to catch this very pretty bird.
