While not earth shattering I thought I would pass along that this week the hoards of American goldfinches have been joined by redpolls in some places in impressive numbers and a few small flocks of pine grosbeaks. A resident in NewLiskeard reports a flock of 50 plus bohemian waxwings. At my own feeder a short flight outside of cobalt we are enjoying all of the winter finches at once siskin’s, purple, redpolls, gold, evening and pines. I cannot recall ever having all of these species at once before. Looks like Ron Pittway’s winter finch forecast was bang on the money. This will be my last report on winter finches from our area as I know it pushes the indulgence of those looking for rarer fare. Should anyone wish more updates on these species please feel free to contact me. Sincerely Bruce murphy
