The following brief description of the Pine Grosbeak may 
enable those unacquainted with the bird to recognize it. In 
size a little smaller than a Robin, plump, well-feathered , with 
short, stout bill. Old males with most of the plumage rosy 
red. Females and young males ashy brown with more or less 
yellowish, saffron or dull red on the rump and top of head. Both 
sexes have two conspicuous white bars on the wings. 
Yours truly, 
WILLIAM BREWSTER.
