Oops. I am just getting around to checking my email this evening. Sorry about that. 


Yes, the update Wallace hinted at is that there are at least seven Red Crossbills coming to Mr. Caton's feeders. He counted at least that many birds today, and I suspect there could be even more.

Thanks Wallace for showing the pic. 

I've provided Mr. Caton information about the status of Red Crossbill in the region, and explained they are considered uncommon as well as rather nomadic.

I think he is very pleased to be hosting his crossbill flock.

Near Erwin, TN in Unicoi County . . . .
 
Bryan Stevens shared this photo with me of one of the
Red Crossbills coming to David M. Caton's feeder
near the Cherokee Forest at Erwin. Bryan will
probably post more exciting news about this find
later this afternoon or evening but I will leave that
to him.  Amazing stuff (photo by David M. Caton).
 
Let's go birding . . . .
