Index of Subjects Just to add to the Redpoll discussion - There are large numbers in this area but they don't seem to need feeders except opportunistically. We are located up on a hill above Hantsport with a clear view to the Avon River and much of the town area. The Redpolls rarely come to my feeders in numbers, but you can certainly see them going by. Yesterday a huge flock suddenly appeared looking like a snow squall and veered towards me instead of going by. Within seconds the feeders were covered and the entire deck and patio was swarming with birds. After a minute or two it was clear that most were not finding much so I opened the patio door to throw out more food. They vanished en masse. They did not come back although I saw the flock go by twice more in the next hour or so. I have seen large flocks before, both here and in Windsor - they are clearly not hurting for food.
