Large Beak: (Pheucticus melanocephalus)

The grosbeaks are visiting us this spring! The Black-Headed Grosbeak is the most often seen, followed by the Evening Grosbeak ( see extra) and occasionally, the Rose-Breasted Grosbeak. 

According to Wikipedia, "The word "grosbeak", first applied in the late 1670s, is a partial translation of the French grosbec, where gros means "large" and bec means "beak".

Grosbeak

Hola, pajaro!
Welcome to my house:
Your house is my
house. The seeds
at the house you visit
any time are yours;
the firs
the pines
and oaks
are here for free—
finders keepers.
I’ve been waiting
for you, wondering
if you’d come again
worried lest you’d forget
or had lost your way
or before you got started,
back at your place, were dead
in a ditch, as every mother here
and there says her worry;
then after I’d said, they’re not
coming this year, forgetting
you’d come if you could,
here you are, your song
falling
like rain.
