White-winged Crossbill - Loxia leucopteraThis year has been a good irruption year for some of the northern 'winter finches'. Throughout the state there have been reports of Pine Siskins coming to feeders, as well as a few Common Redpolls. There have also been a lot of reports of White-winged Crossbills. I (any many others) been taking pictures of these cone specialists in the low scrubby trees in the campground area of Salisbury State Reserve, where they remain low and esy to see and photograph. This past weekend, this was one of the great places I wanted to bring my friends and teammates from the Superbowl of Birding. I know that they have got some spectacular shots also.
