Re. redpolls: 

The Mt Pleasant Rd redpolls were eating the seeds of various weeds in the 
field, many of which actually are introduced species. Over the past few weeks I 
have tried to identify them from the dead plant stems and seed heads...it's not 
easy. Some of them (I think) are chicory, goldenrod (native), dock (not 
burdock), plantain, hyssop, bedstraw and I'm sure there are others. 

BTW, the redpolls are now frequenting the even-weedier field immediately west 
of the white observatory building on Mt Pleasant Rd.

Are there any reports of redpolls at feeders?

At least 100 redpolls were at the corner of Aiken and Tucker Roads, and in the 
weeds further up Tucker today.  I’ve seen them several times here in the last 
few weeks, but this was the first time they let themselves be photographed 
(badly!) and counted!
