Add Ogden Valley in Weber County to the list of locations WHITE-WINGED
CROSSBILLS are using this winter. I saw them in two locations in the valley
today. The first was on 6800E., which is a south turn off SR-39 at about
mile 17.1 across the road from Anderson Cove Campground. The other spot was
in Huntsville Cemetery at the west end of 100S. in Huntsville on Cemetery
Point.
The flock in the spruce trees at the corner of SR-39 and 6800E. numbered at
least 30 birds, although I only saw five until they flew. What a surprise. I
don't think any Red Crossbills were present by the sound of the flight
calls. The group at the cemetery numbered only four White-wings.
