[Ontbirds] Algonquin finches

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. Brian Morin
