At 13:00 on 25 January 2008 I saw a flock of 6 pine grosbeaks on the
campus of Wilfrid Laurier University. I heard them call, and looking up
saw two perched on the top of a tree; four others flew in to join them.
There was at least one adult male among the group; all the others had
paler plumage. The sighting was in the middle of the campus in front of
the Little House residence
(http://info.wlu.ca/wlu-hp/about/maps-2003/little_house.shtml). The WLU
campus can be reached by following Hwy 8 west from Hwy 401. At the
junction of Hwy 7 and 8 follow Hwy 7 east and continue on to Hwy 85
north. Exit from Hwy 85 at University Ave W. Follow University Ave.
2.6 km to the first set of lights past King St. Turn left onto
Mid-campus Dr.
