Mike watched 2 Ospreys, one spent most of the daylight hours perched in a tree 
in yard
(I was on a whirlwind four-day trip to NM for Rosy-finches)

Question: Have several NC birding friends who want to see the Red Crossbills at 
Roan Mountain. Has anyone seen any lately? Anytime of the year better than 
another?
