Cubs are growing!

Still worried but hopeful with the lack of shots letting me relax more and appreciate the sights of cubs growing and birds changing color as we work to maintain the status quo for the bears. The rose-breasted grosbeak is an adult male changing into winter plumage. The evening grosbeak is a juvenile male gradually molting into his bright yellow adult plumage.

Thank you for all you do, including the encouragement I've felt in the last couple days.
