One first-year male Black-headed Grosbeak from Jan. 23 to April 13, 1965 at Eleanor Pink's feeder in Pleasant Valley, seen by many.  It was found following a severe and fast moving snowstorm originating in Texas.  This is the only Dutchess County record, although there are a number of New York state records.
