Add me to the growing list. To my great delight, I looked out this morning to
see a chunky yellowish finch on one of the thistle feeders. Hmmm, says I -
that doesn't look like a Goldfinch. When a Junco helpfully landed on the same
feeder and I could see they were the same size, I quickly set up the scope.
Female Red Crossbill! Both a "year" and a new "yard" bird for me. Now I'm
waiting for a Hoary Redpoll.
Note to my cronies - the Crossbill left a while ago, just in case you were
going to ask if you could come over...
