Red Crossbills are heard by me 95% of the time when I am on Unaka Mountain
or Roan Mountain. You will hear these birds flying over but seldom see them
perched. In the early mournings wait in the Carver's Gap gravel parking lot
in your vehicle. Red Crossbills and pine siskins often come down to the
gravel to pick up grit or seeds. You may get great looks at them if you are
lucky. If you don't see them doing this just spend some hours on the
mountain and eventually
\you will hear them fly over.
