Hi,
Come on Kevin, I have full confidence you can identify all 4 subspecies on
the table or in the field. Mistakes can happen, but all 4 subspecies can be
identified with practice. :)
cheers,
Matt

When I was on the New York State Avian Records Committee I realized that
there was no possible way to evaluate what people thought they saw with
redpolls. Photos are the only hope.
Even then, I have had a couple dozen carcasses from Alaska on the table in
front of me and I wasn't sure what was what.
Kevin
