Hello
I live in NH. and saw a bird today eating some berries and the freshly falling snow. I have never seen this bird before and I cant find it in any bird book or on the web.
The bird has an orange breast. Not quite a vivid as a cardinal red, but still fairly strong in color- more like a robin. He has a round head, black eye. There is white around his eye. He has a very bright orange beak, and the feathers under the beak where his beak joins his body are white.. Long tail. Body is like a mix of white and dark brown/black. white underside. Medium sized- not quite as big as a cardinal or robin, but almost.
I am VERY curious a to what this is. I have never seen it before, and we don't get a ton of birds at this time of the year.
thanks!
