Hi all- While canoeing on the north end of Lake Irene in NE Douglas co last night, my wife and I were pleased and surprised to have a young Red Crossbill fly in near enough to see and (hopefully) record faintly. Good bird for the county.
We've also had a few Pine Siskins and Purple Finches over the past few days, but Thurs and Fri were very quiet for migrants otherwise. Things have picked up a little today. Lake Jennie in Douglas Co had many thousands of coots, upwards of 300 Canvasback, and about 20 Buffleheads. A few flocks of pipits were the other notable.
