Index of Subjects Ian, I have been unsuccessful in recording any sound from the visiting red crossbills; they seem to be too busy eating! The adult birds left shortly after my last post, but four juveniles now eat for hours on end, it seems. One has a reddish orange flush on the head, while another has a few red speckles around the neck/chest area so presumably males. I've heard nothing from them other than a few clicks now & again. They are not timid and I can approach to within a foot or so. They seem to travel with some purple finches which they resemble, apart from the bill & size. I'm wondering if I should stop filling the feeders, as I don't want them to hang around longer than is healthy for them or to get them too dependent. Any advice in this regard? Ken MacAulay Port Mouton, NS
