My “marbelous” male Summer Tanager, who is still but a youth, has been showing up pretty much every day.

I’ve taken to calling him Joseph (hence the Biblical Bird title) because, like his namesake, he sports a beautiful multi-colored coat.

I confess that I ooh and aah every time I see him. He has an exotic look about him, which brings back fond memories of the beauties that hubby and I saw in Costa Rica.

I know he’ll eventually have all red feathers like his daddy, but for now, I’m glad he doesn’t seem in a hurry to grow up!
