Hello, Everyone. I hope this serious cold snap has not affected anyone's ability to get out and find some interesting birds. I am coming to Indian Lake in the Adirondacks during the Presidents weekend, and was wondering if anyone knew of the exact locations in that vicinity of active feeders which may harbor some Winter finches (in particular Boreal Chickadee, which I have not seen in a long time, or a stray Hoary Redpoll (which I have never seen in Lower 48.) I am also not adverse to searching for the more uncommon raptors. Perhaps there is a local birder I can contact? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
