[Ontbirds] Algonquin finches

[Brian Morin via ONTBIRDS]

While in Algonquin Park this week I noted Pine Siskins in several areas and
there were singing White-winged Crossbills near Mew Lake. The cone crop on
spruce is good this year. Algonquin specialties were scarce but there was a
Boreal Chickadee near Wolf Howl Pond.

Lake Shore Blvd. E. in Toronto. Park and walk the main paved road due south for
