Today in far northern St Louis County, there was a wolf-killed deer carcass
on the ice. There was a great mass of Ravens, about 20 to 30, on it and one
Bald Eagle. With the below zero temperatures we just experienced, an influx
of Pine Grosbeaks have come into the area. I saw a small flock of RED
CROSSBILLS on the road, they love that road salt. Unfortunately, there were
no white-winged crossbills mixed in. Curious to me is the fact that I have
seen no Redpolls yet this year, though I was told that up here in this part
of the state, the Redpolls are a sign of spring!
