Thanks Cynthia. I went this morning. Took a little walk into the Emma Carlin
trails before driving down toward Stute Springs where I met, I believe,
Margaret Jones. Neither of us had any red crossbills the entire time (maybe an
hour and a half). Along the Stute Springs trail there though next to the
spruces were some migrants. Multiple black throated green warblers, a hooded,
and a redstart. Had a brief look at one I swore had an all gray hood but then
it disappeared on me. Heard something singing that said vireo to me. My guess
was blue-headed but turned out to be yellow-throated but at least I was half
right. Also an assortment of flycatchers in the area and a lot of red-eyed
vireos. Overall it was a good spot this morning despite no crossbills. I also
stopped at UW Waukesha Field Station for a brief walk. Nothing notable and
around then it began to rain steadily, which it looks like it'll continue to do
now for a while. -Mike Duchek, Waukesha, Waukesha Co.
