Today I was pleased to see my favorite bird once again.

A flock of 9 white-winged crossbills were eating spruce cones in my yard.  I
notice that the spruce trees are loaded with cones.  

Maybe this will be a good year for crossbills


In the mid 90’s I was able to find the first nest of this species in the
state – in the rather “southern” Rice county.  

If these birds stick around I will be excited to look for more nests come
March.

Cheers,
