[mou] Redpolls and Purple finches in Burnsville

[Dave & Sally Elwood]

This morning has been one of the best yard bird days in a long time.   So
far this morning we've seen:

Common Redpoll - A total of 5 or 6 seen at different times
Purple Finch - 2
American GoldFinch - lots
House Finch
White-breasted Nuthatch
American Robin - several
Northern Cardinal
Blue Jay
American Crow
Common Grackle - 1
Starling - 1
Dark-eyed Junco
Black-capped Chickadee

I've only seen one other Purple Finch and one other Common Redpoll in our
yard, so seeing several of both species in our yard at the same time was a
treat.
