I was fortunate enough to come across a mixed flock of Pine and Evening Grosbeaks in Mille Lacs County today. There were at least a dozen Pine Grosbeaks and at least 5 Evening Grosbeaks in the flock. The location is along the south shore of Mille Lacs Lake. Take CR142 north off of Hwy 27 (about 1.5 or 2.0 miles west of Wahkon). When CR142 comes to a "T", take a right. I don't know the exact distance from there (about a mile I would guess). Look for the blue house number sign 40664. This is where I first saw the birds. They then moved a couple of houses further down and were feeding on a large crab apple tree in the yard. I also found (heard) Red Crossbills and Common Redpolls in Kathio State Park today.
