[Birdnet] More Red Crossbills

[Thorum]

Today I had six Red Crossbills at my feeders.  Three males and three females.  I got a very close look at a male and female as I had a hands on experience.  I suppose the neighborhood Sharpie did a flyover and frightened them and they hit my window and their necks were broken.  I went out and gathered them up and got very good looks at their beautiful feathers and interesting cross bills.  I feel bad that they ended up window strikes.  

I still have many Pine Siskins.  They have nearly made us have to take out a mortgage on the house buying thistle.  They have used up my Geo. Bush stimulus package.  Why do they have to like the most expensive bird seed?

Happy Birding,
Donna Thorum
