Red Crossbills thick at Floras Lake today in the Sitka spruce. A few
siskins too but nothing like a month ago.

Same situation in coastal Lane Co. What’s odd is that there is a really
good cone crop. Nobody seems to be using it and hard to believe it is all
cleaned out already.

After an influx into Lincoln County starting
slowly in late July and building to large numbers
present in October, Siskins have now rapidly
and apparently virtually completely cleared out
of this area. The last ebird report for the county
was Nov. 3.
Small numbers of crossbills are still around
although tougher to find than a few weeks ago.
