New bird!!!

I need help finding this bird's name. It was beautiful! I have not seen this one before.....It sat with its back to me for the longest time. It is black and white, then it turned around and wow!!! What a beautiful red streak down the front. Looks like it is mostly on the neck area. Does anyone know what it is??


Just found it!! Rose breasted grosbeak.....how cool. It is a member of the cardinal family. I am just loving researching all these birds.

    Those grosbeaks are beautiful birds. They are really rare at our feeder. In fact, it's been years since I've seen one. You're are getting a good variety of birds. Now if you get an Indigo Bunting, I'll be jealous!:)
