Dickcissel (Spiza americana), Boyce Thompson Arboretum, Pinal County

This Dickcissel was discovered and photographed by Jack Holloway on 27 September 2011.

Formerly rare migrant that seems to be increasingly regular and widespread, at least for the last couple of years.

Yellow breast, face pattern, rusty wing bar.
