Sharon and I watched a flock of about 20 redpolls today (January 20) at the boat launch at Agate Bay in Two Harbors, and four of them were Hoary Redpolls. Three were "classic" frosty white males and one was a female. All four had completely unstreaked undertail coverts and noticeably stubby bills compared to the Common Redpolls. We were able to watch them feeding in tansies from 20-30 feet away for about 15 minutes. Unfortunately I didn't have a camera.
