Around noon today, I had a female-type Hoary Redpoll with a flock of around 30 Common Redpolls near Houghton Centre. Specifically, the flock was feeding in alders along the west side of Concession 4, just north of Lower Sideroad (northeast of Houghton Centre). This is just to the west of Long Point. Lower Sideroad is the first road north of Lakeshore Rd.
The flock had moved on by the time I left, but could well be in the area still, as there was plenty of food around. There was also a Yellow-rumped Warbler here, making for an unusual species combination.
