[Birdnet] more crossbills

[weston smith]

Went birding today with my dad(Arnold Smith), brother(Aaron), and his daughter in Morgan County. We decided to see if we could find any White-winged Crossbills in the county since they have been reported all around Morgan. Our trip was very successful as we found nine White-winged about a half mile from dads house, maybe they will find his feeders or spruce trees. Other highlights were Red Crossbill, Fox Sparrow, Virginia Rail, and a very beautiful sparrow on the court house lawn that we concluded was a Savannah Sparrow. We were only able to spend about three hours but where able to see quite a few birds, here is a list of all the species seen.
