The Pine Grosbeak (Pinicola enucleator) is a large member of the true finch family. It is found in coniferous woods across Alaska, the western mountains of the United States, Canada, and in subarctic Fennoscandia and Siberia. Adult males (example shown here) have a rose-red head, back and rump, while females are olive-yellow on the head and rump and grey on the back and underparts.Photo: 72426950scott

The best pictures of pine grosbeaks are the two pictured on the back of the Canadian $1000 bill! I have one! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.134.218.36 (talk) 05:31, 5 January 2015 (UTC)Reply
