A flock - 30 to 50 - of White-winged Crossbills has finally appeared this
afternoon in the wake of a small showing of Pine Siskins and Redpolls
earlier this week. A small group of the Crossbills stopped to feed in my
backyard.
Where: Markham village area, east of Markham Rd. and north of Robinson St. -
specifically, the south end of Grenfell Cres. In the neighbourhood, there
are many mature spruce trees hanging heavily with cones.
