After five attempts, success. Saw 6 individuals SE of the corner of Robinson and Green Rds at 5:15PM on 2/15/04 across from the Brantford Airport. After spotting the birds, and after a minute or two of binocs, they flushed east towards a mild gulley and were not seen again.
Just 10 minutes before, a coyote (coy-dog?) crossed Green Rd. from the airport swinging South. Earlier, the airport manager reported he had seen 5 coyote/coy-dogs on the east end of the airport that same morning. To the businessman from Thunder Bay whose plane was leaving shortly from Hamilton: it was over in a flash but I looked for you to no avail. Thank you for advising me on the Crossbills at Thunder Bay.
